Biography

Vivek studied to be an aerospace engineer, and spent a few fun years developing numerical simulation software for The MathWorks. A couple of excellent neuroscience courses at Brandeis University convinced him to study brains instead. He now spends his time trying to understand bugs that are a bit more fun to work on than the ones he encountered in his previous career.

B.Tech., Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay (1994)
MS, University of Florida, Gainesville (1996)
