Gopala Anumanchipalli, PhD
Assistant Professor
Neurological Surgery
School of Medicine

Gopala Anumanchipalli is an assistant professor in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at UC Berkeley and in Dept. of Neurosurgery at UC San Francisco. His research lies at the intersection of Spoken Language Processing, Speech Neuroscience and Machine Learning. At UCSF, he is currently developing algorithms for Brain-Computer Interfaces towards assistive technologies for people with neurological impairments resulting in partial/complete speech loss.
