Her areas of interest include Cognitive Neurosciences, Cognitive Sciences and Mental Disorders. Her current research work involves study of mental anxiety of patients with Parkinson’s Disease.

She came up with some non-obvious insights and the research paper that she co-authored got published in a peer-reviewed journal. As part of this study, she also came up with a new framework, called JUMA framework, to conduct any study / survey involving impact of COVID-19 lockdown on humans.
Apart from this, Mugdha has been actively involved in bringing Artificial Intelligence (Machine Learning) and Psychology together. She was involved in training a BERT-based model using Myer-Briggs Personality Type Indicators (MBTI) to come with a system that can predict the personality type of authors given their social media posts.
Mugdha plans to pursue her interests in Cognitive Neuroscience through her higher studies.
