Rachel Schuck
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research interests center on improving support services for autistic individuals—particularly by incorporating feedback from the autistic/autism community—and increasing access to high quality supports. I am also interested in assessing attitudes toward neurodiversity and promoting understanding of neurodiversity amongst the general population in the hopes of improving quality of life for neurodivergent people and their families.

Shailja
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiological Sciences Laboratory
BioShailja is an engineer and computational scientist interested in the modeling of the human brain to study neurological diseases and guide neurosurgeries. As a Wu Tsai Neuroscience Institute’s postdoctoral fellow with Prof. Jennifer A. McNab and Prof. Josef Parvizi, she investigates tractography-based neurosurgical targeting. She is interested in mapping the whole brain structural connectivity network from diffusion MRI to functional connectivity in the human brain. Shailja received her PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of California, Santa Barbara and BS from Electrical Engineering Department, Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. Her doctoral research is on Reeb graphs for modeling white matter fibers in the human brain, which was awarded the Winifred and Louis Lancaster Best PhD Dissertation at UC Santa Barbara.
