Hi ,
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.


I am Ankur studying at Manipal Institute of Technology, Manipal as a Computer Science student. I am at 3nd year (5th semester) in college.
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.
