A proponent of disruptive innovations, Tanmay Arora is on a mission to make neurotechnology accessible and affordable to everyone, everywhere.
Having previously contributed to a number of R&D projects and innovations at premier research labs and institutions, Tanmay believes that computers and cells are both complex machines that share concepts of pathways, networks, signals, and memory. He holds expertise in Machine Learning, Bioinformatics, Entrepreneurship, and Managerial Skills for Interpersonal Dynamics, gained from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Madras, the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kharagpur and the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Roorkee, India. He has previously published a book on “Introduction to Shell Scripting and Python Programming” 2020, and is currently working on his second and third books. With an immense passion for recent advances in modern sciences at the interface of neurobiology and computers, he is currently employing machine learning approaches to solve complex biological problems.
Tanmay Arora is a singer-songwriter and composer based in New Delhi, India, and has had a love for Urdu poetry/Sufi and Rock music since he was 6 years old. For the past 9 years, he has been perfecting his skills, writing a wide variety of music and originals spanning across Indie Rock/Pop/Cinematic and Electronic sub-genres.
