Biography
Pedram Afshar received the B.S.E. degree in bioengineering from the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, in 2000, the M.D. degree from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA, in 2007, and the Ph.D. degree in robotics and biomedical engineering from Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, in 2009. He completed Biodesign Innovation Fellowship at Stanford University, Stanford, CA, in 2010.
He is now a Senior Scientist working in the Neural Engineering Technology Group at Medtronic Neuromodulation, Minneapolis, MN. His current research focus is on using machine learning and automation to enable closed-loop therapies that improve therapy efficacy and increase healthcare accessibility for patients with neurological diseases.
