About Me

Karan Thakkar

Hello! I'm Karan Thakkar, a dedicated doctoral student in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, USA. My academic quest is deeply rooted in the fields of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Brain-Inspired Computational Models for Audio. Working under the expert guidance of Professor Mounya Elhilali at the Laboratory of Computational Audio Perception, I am at the forefront of researching and developing groundbreaking auditory perception-inspired models.

For more information on my technical journey please see the attached CV.

In my free time, I indulge in painting and exploring the creative world of music mixing, allowing me to blend my technical expertise with artistic expression.

If you're interested in my research or have any questions, please feel free to reach out. I am always eager to engage in thoughtful conversations and collaborations.
