Biography
Mohammad S. E. Sendi, PhD, is affiliated with the Center for Depression, Anxiety and Stress Research, where he develops neuroimaging biomarkers using multi-omic data—including fMRI, EEG, and functional genomics—to enhance the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of neuropsychiatric conditions, such as PTSD and depression. He utilizes machine learning models to identify brain network disruptions related to symptom severity in stress and anxiety-related disorders and major depressive disorder.
Dr. Sendi led the creation of an innovative active learning pipeline to customize deep brain stimulation (DBS) effects, aiming to reduce variability in patient outcomes. His overarching goal is to integrate engineering and neuroscience to develop treatments that significantly improve the quality of life for those struggling with PTSD and depression.
