Sanika is an undergraduate junior studying Bioengineering with an option in Data Science at the University of Washington. She joined the CardSS Lab in her sophomore year, and worked with former Master’s Student Amber Chen to develop a machine learning algorithm using convolutional neural networks to predict VT onset in a patient with single-lead EKG data. Through her experiences at the lab and other courses at the UW, her passion for the computational biomedical field has grown and she hopes to continue this path in the future. In her free time, Sanika enjoys singing, playing the piano, playing badminton, and painting. In addition to being the current captain of UW Awaaz, the South Asian fusion A Cappella team on campus, she hopes to keep music as an intrinsic part of her life even after graduation.
Education:
B.S., Bioengineering, University of Washington, 2023 (expected)
