\"\"Associate Professor Archana Venkataraman<\/a> has been selected by BU\u2019s Faculty of Computing & Data Sciences<\/a> to their 2023-24 cohort of Faculty Fellows. Founded in 2019, BU\u2019s CDS \u201cconnects a plethora of liberal arts, science, and professional disciplines with its foundational fields of computer science, computer engineering, mathematics, and statistics.\u201d Their Faculty Fellows Program is geared towards fostering a community of scholars reflecting this same convergent disciplinary approach, with a particular focus on supporting recent recruits to the BU faculty whose research shows significant promise.<\/span><\/p>\n

As director of the Neural Systems Analysis Laboratory, Professor Venkataraman and her associates work at the intersection of biomedical imaging, artificial intelligence, and clinical neuroscience, with the long-term goal of improving patient care. Her methodology incorporates a variety of computational approaches, such as machine learning, signal processing, and network theory, with application-driven hypotheses about brain functionality. Her work has yielded insights into neurological disorders such as autism, schizophrenia and epilepsy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Recently, Professor Venkataraman attended the Computing Research Association\u2019s Computing Community Consortium Leadership in Science Policy Institute<\/a> (LiSPI) in Washington, D.C., as an invited participant. The annual workshop is designed to connect computing researchers with the tools and knowledge they need to get involved in critical policy discussions that will reshape our society.<\/span><\/p>\n

Professor Venkataraman joined the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering as an Associate Professor in January 2023, with affiliate appointments in the Departments of Biostatistics and Biomedical Engineering. She currently serves on the Editorial Board of Medical Image Analysis and as an Associate Editor for Frontiers in Neuroimaging – Analysis Methods. In both 2020 and 2021, she won Best Paper Awards at SPIE Medical Imaging Conference and Machine Learning for Clinical Neuroimaging Workshop, respectively. Venkataraman earned her PhD from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2012.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
