Yasmine Kehnemouyi

Yasmine Kehnemouyi is an incoming fourth year PhD student in the Bioengineering department. She became interested in neuroengineering research as a research engineer in the Stanford Human Motor Control and Neuromodulation Laboratory where she worked to improve motor symptoms in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD). As a PhD student, she is working with Dr. Todd Coleman to use multimodal electrical recordings to develop objective measures of nonmotor symptoms in PD and thus explore the degeneration of the gut-brain axis throughout the disease. At Stanford, Yasmine has been involved with the Neurotech Training Program and TA mentoring and enjoys swimming and supporting the Baltimore Ravens in her free time.
