Aishwarya Veerkumar

Master of Public Health in Epidemiology & Biostatistics

Master of Business Administration

Bachelor of Technology in Biomedical Engineering

I turn complex clinical data into decisions that matter.

With a foundation spanning biomedical engineering, business strategy, epidemiology, and biostatistics, I operate at the intersection of research rigor, regulatory precision, and real-world impact, from wearable neuroimaging labs to global health systems.

GCP-certified. SAS-fluent. SOP-obsessed.

Built for clinical research, data science, product decision making, and the roles where they collide.

The work speaks for itself. Scroll down. ↓

That’s me at MIT!

Representing Asian Women for Health at MIT's realtalk@Boston convening, I collaborated with leaders from 13 Boston organizations to co-design community conversation guides and brainstorm strategies for bridging dialogue across neighborhoods, contributing directly to building Boston's civic infrastructure for elevating underheard voices.
