Yash Shah
Ph.D. Student in Computer Science, admitted Autumn 2025
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research interests lie in developing neuroconnectionist mechanistic models of the brain that deepen our understanding of neural computation and representations. I aim to explore how physiological and anatomical constraints shape cortical topography and, in turn, scaffold development. I am particularly intrigued by observing certain behaviors emerge from mechanistic models, even when the model was not optimized to do so.
