Shriya Srinivasan is an American biomedical engineer and assistant professor of bioengineering[1] at the John A Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States. Srinivasan's research focuses on the development of surgical reconstruction techniques in consort with bidirectional neural implants for improved sensorimotor control.[2][3] Her contributions to the neural engineering field include surgical techniques[4] and control paradigms for next-generation myoelectric control and sensory feedback.[5]

In 2021, she was named by the MIT Technology Review as one of the top 100 innovators in the world under the age of 35.[6] She was awarded the Cure It! Lemelson-MIT Graduate Student Prize for her invention of the Cutaneous Mechanoneural Interface, which can return sensory information from a prosthesis to a wearer.[7] Srinivasan also earned the Delsys Prize[8] and has been named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list.[9]

Srinivasan is also a Bharathanatyam artist and has performed widely in the United States and India.

Education

Srinivasan performed her postdoctoral research in labs of Professors Robert Langer and Giovanni Traverso, developing ingestible bioelectronics[10] for gastrointestinal neuromodulation. She received a Schmidt Science Fellowship.

Healthcare Innovation Initiatives

Srinivasan was a former director of MIT Hacking Medicine,[11] where she led educational and programmatic initiatives for design thinking education and medtech innovation - interfacing with various governmental[12] and corporate entities.[13] She also founded the Project Prana Foundation,[14] devoted to affordable medical technology innovation. Srinivasan led the development and commercialization of a ventilator multiplexer[15] to increase access to respiratory therapy during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dance career

Shriya Srinivasan is also an Bharathanatyam artist who trained under Guru Sujatha Srinivasan. Srinivasan has presented solo concerts all over the United States in venues such as Playhouse Square, Cleveland Public Theatre, Severance Hall and in numerous cities in India.[16] She co-founded and directs the Anubhava Dance Company[17] along with Joshua George since 2015.[18] She has won awards at various international competitions, including the Cleveland Thyagaraja Festival, and has performed at the Madras Music Academy’s Spirit of Youth Festival, HCL, and midyear series. Shriya trained in Carnatic music under Guru Madurai R. Sundar. Blending her training in Carnatic music, yoga, and biomechanics, Srinivasan brings a holistic approach to her art and has choreographed several socially relevant productions.[19] Her performances and productions have received critical acclaim.[20][21]
