Lab Members

Aamir completed his PhD in 2019 at Paris-Saclay Institute of Neuroscience (Neuro-PSI), affiliated with the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) and the University of Paris. In the Gulati Lab, his current project looks at the interplay between cerebello-cortical mechanisms of neuroprosthetic learning.

I completed my MS in electrical engineering at Texas A&M University in May 2020 and am currently a bioengineering PhD student at UCLA and a visiting graduate student at Cedars-Sinai. My current work in the Gulati Lab focuses on the subcortical cerebellar brain-machine interfaces for neuroprosthetic control.

Hayden joins the team after graduating with a BA in neuroscience from Pomona College in May 2024. He is interested in discovering new treatment options for stroke and traumatic brain injury that cause decreased motor function and hopes to understand the role of the cerebellum further as it relates to neurorehabilitation. In the future, Hayden would like to attend medical school to implement his passion for understanding and treating neurological deficits through academic medicine.

I’m a UCLA undergraduate student majoring in neuroscience. My aspirations include acquiring valuable experience and in-depth understanding in the fields of neurorehabilitation, neurobiological systems and behavioral neuroscience. My future goals encompass medical school, research focused on neurodegenerative diseases with a Parkinson’s emphasis, and providing care for individuals with brain injuries.

Priscilla is currently a high school senior at Palisades Charter High School and an INSPIRE intern. She is enthusiastic about pursuing a career in clinical medicine, and is very interested in neurosciences and neurological medicine. She is utilizing her time here at Cedars-Sinai by conducting stroke rehabilitation research in the lab.

Esther is a student at Los Angeles Senior High School and has developed a passion for neuroscience, stroke research and care. She is deeply curious about the brain and is committed to pursuing a career in medicine. Driven by both compassion and scientific interest, Esther hopes to make a meaningful impact in the field of neurology.
