BioCynthia graduated from the University of California San Diego in 2026 with a Ph.D. in Computational Neurosciences. Her dissertation focused on multimodal digital biomarkers, using speech, virtual reality, and eye-tracking to detect Alzheimer's disease years before symptoms emerge. Growing up in Nairobi, Kenya, Cynthia developed an early passion for accessible healthcare, particularly for communities with limited access to advanced diagnostics. She is now a Postdoctoral Fellow in Dr. Ehsan Adeli's STAI Lab at Stanford, supported by the PRISM Baker Fellowship, where she is extending her work on passive biomarkers to gait, mobility, and neuroimaging.
