About Me

Who am I?

I’m Mohammad Taha Fakharian, a computer engineering graduated B.Sc student living in Tehran, Iran. I first learned about programming in high school while I was getting familiar with algorithms. I developed a passion for software development as I began to write more code throughout my studies and personal projects. Since then, I have developed open-source projects which I encourage you to read more about on my GitHub page. Today, I work as a research assistant, focusing on the intersection of AI and neuroscience(NeuroAI) and machine learning for neuroscience.

What are my research interests?

My research focuses on the intersection of machine learning and neuroscience, particularly on understanding how the brain learns and encodes information. I believe the dialogue between neuroscience and AI (e.g. models and methods from deep learning) would allow us to gain a deeper understanding of the brain’s computational function, which in turn can lead to the development of more powerful artificial intelligence models. Finally, I am interested in the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in various domains, such as healthcare and finance. I’m a bit interested in new technologies like blockchain too.

What are my other interests?

I have always been interested in football. I’ve been a huge fan of football since childhood. I like playing games and musical instruments too. I also enjoy reading books and watching movies in my free time.
