Forecasting Recovery: Dr. Kiran and Dr. Venkataraman Awarded $3.2M NIH Grant

Center for Brain Recovery (CBR) faculty members Dr. Archana Venkataraman and Dr. Swathi Kiran have been awarded a $3.2M NIH grant from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders to develop computational tools that will predict language recovery in people with post-stroke aphasia.

About the project, Kiran says:

“The goal of this work is to use advanced machine learning models to estimate and forecast how patients recover their language skills over time and what aspects of brain function best predict this recovery. Once we can develop such advanced models, we can use this information in better decision support tools and for personalized treatment planning.”
