Hi, I'm Yahya

Assistant Project Scientist & Principal Investigator at the Swartz Center for Computational Neuroscience, UC San Diego

I develop open-source tools for biosignal analysis and contribute to neuroinformatics standards. My research integrates computational neuroscience with human cognition and behavior, focusing on EEG/EMG signal processing, neuroinformatics infrastructure, and the neural control of movement.
