PRESENTER BIO
Dr. Gaurav N. Pradhan is the Assistant Professor of Biomedical Informatics at Mayo College of Medicine and Senior Research Scientist at Mayo Clinic Arizona. He has earned his MS and Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Texas at Dallas in 2005 and 2008, respectively. His research involves treatment/mitigation for simulator or motion sickness, enhancing balance, inducing a predictable sense of motion using galvanic vestibular stimulation, and discovering surrogate measurements of cognitive performance/impairment using eye movements. His research at Mayo Clinic for the last 11 years has led to multiple patents and commercial licenses. He has published over 40 papers in various conference and journal venues. His current research projects are involved with NASA and the Department of Defense. With his expertise in data mining, pattern recognition, knowledge discovery, machine learning, cluster analysis, and multi-dimensional databases, he has led multiple projects in developing real-time computational/mathematical models and simulations in medicine, conducting health care data analytics, and mining, and creating data visualizations in biomedical informatics.
Objectives:
Innovation in Vestibular and Human Performance Research
v Mitigate Visual Vestibular Conflict Using Galvanic Vestibular Stimulation
- Application for synchronizing GVS with visual stimuli (e.g., Virtual Reality)
- Creating (dis-)orientational illusions: somatogravic and Coriolis for training purposes
v Quantify Cognitive Performance Through Eye Movements
- Oculo Cognitive Addition Test (OCAT)
- Impact of different levels of cognitive workload on oculomotor and cognitive performance
