-------------	[ biography ] I am a graduate student in the Department of Linguistics, University of Potsdam. I am pursuing PhD in Computational Psycholinguistics since June 2006 and my advisor is Prof. Shravan Vasishth. I completed M.Sc. in Computer Sc. and B.Sc. in Math from the University of Mumbai, India. I also worked as a research assistant in the Department of Computer Sc. & Engg., IIT Bombay for some time before moving to Potsdam.	-------------
-------------	[ research interests ] My main research interest is computational modeling of human language processing which is also called Computational Psycholinguistics, a branch of Cognitive Science. It essentially involves Computational Linguistics/Natural Language Processing, Cognitive Modeling and Psycholinguistics.	-------------
