Dr. Brikha Shrestha was a graduate student in the Neurobiology and Behavior Program from 2006-2013. He then moved on to a postdoctoral fellowship with Dr. Lisa Goodrich at Harvard Medical School working on spiral ganglion neuron development and function. He is now a member of the faculty in Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery at Harvard Medical School/Massachusetts Eye and Ear.
