Siddharth Mittal

I am a PhD researcher working on population receptive field (pRF) mapping and retinotopic organisation in the human visual cortex. My research focuses on large-scale simulations, methodological validation, and high-performance computing approaches for fMRI analysis. I develop GPU-accelerated tools to improve the accuracy and computational efficiency of pRF estimation, with particular emphasis on understanding pRF fitting, refinement procedures, and the limits imposed by noise and stimulus geometry. More broadly, I am interested in reproducible neuroimaging methods and the use of simulation frameworks to establish ground truth in computational neuroscience.
