I am Ankur, currently working at Deloitte India Private Limited, Bangalore.  
I'm currently a post-doc research fellow at the [https://silverlab.org Silver Lab] at UCL where I research in the field of computational neuroscience.


== Contributions ==
I've been contributing to Fedora for a while now. It started with [[User:Sundaram| Rahul Sundaram]] taking a font packaging workshop. I've come a long way since then, but am still quite a learner. If there's anything I can help you with, feel free to ping me either over e-mail or one of the IM channels.
 
I'm interested in my research, computational neuroscience, and enabling Open Science in whatever way I can help.
 
Note: Since I'm not in India, I cannot service media requests from India currently.
