Nanditha Krishnan, BA

Nanditha Krishnan recently graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, with a B.A. in Psychology. At Berkeley, Nanditha’s academic and research experiences fueled her curiosity about the intersection between cognition, behavior, and neurological disease. During her undergraduate studies, she conducted research in Dr. Devanand Manoli’s lab at UCSF, where she investigated the neural and hormonal mechanisms underlying social behavior using genetic and histological techniques.

 

In 2025, Nanditha joined Dr. Savastano and the TNT Lab to pursue a year-long research internship and contribute to projects in translational research, and medical device development. Nanditha plans to pursue a career in medicine centered on the brain and neurosciences, applying the skills she has developed in research to enhance patient care and clinical innovation.
