Hey, I'm Rishab! I am a sophomore at Harvard concentrating in Neuroscience. Asking existential questions about our existence brought me to neuroscience, and more specifically, to cognition. I am passionate about my research at Massachusetts General Hospital, utilizing computational methods — particularly machine learning and natural language processing — to understand one of our most fundamental cognitive abilities: language. Additionally, as I believe artificially intelligent systems will one day augment human cognitive abilities (and already are... check your pocket for an intelligence augmentation device we already use and depend on as a second brain), I am interested in AI ethics, Neuroethics, and AI safety.

I previously built an edtech company called Qurios, and am now building Claisen — a telehealth company for gastrointestinal conditions. Message me at rishab@claisen.com or on X. I also write small checks ($5-20K) for friends and friends of friends with my brother through JainVC.com.
