A theoretical physicist by training, Mitra's research is centered around intelligent machines and takes both theoretical and experimental approaches.

Join us on Thursday to hear from Dr. Mitra firsthand about a paper being published in Nature Machine Intelligence on Sep 28 which describes how he and his colleagues taught computers to understand brain anatomy – cell by cell - better than any previous AI had done before.
