Shape Analysis Group

Kaleem Siddiqi

Professor

I am a Professor of Computer Science at McGill University, a member of McGill's Centre for Intelligent Machines, and an associate member of the Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics, the Goodman Cancer Research Centre, and MILA. Together with Keith Murai of the Dept. of Neurology and Neurosurgery I hold an FRQS Dual Chair in AI and Health. I work in shape analysis, with interdisciplinary interests - in computervision, neuroscience, machine learning, and perception.

Tabish Syed

Postdoctoral Fellow
(joint with Keith Murai's group)

Tabish is a researcher and developer focused on computational neuroscience, scientific computing, and machine learning, with a passion for building tools that bridge theory and real-world applications.

Marc Theveneau

PhD Candidate

Marc is a fourth-year PhD student. His main interest is the topological relationships between neuroscience and AI. He graduated from École Polytechnique with a degree in fundamental mathematics and from Paris-Saclay University with a degree in mathematics for AI.

Megan Ng

PhD Candidate
(Quantitative Life Sciences program)

Megan is a fourth-year Ph.D. student interested in decoding brain cell structure-function relationships in 3D using machine learning and vision-based methods for analysis. She completed her undergraduate studies at McGill, majoring in Neuroscience and minoring in Computer Science, where she found her passion for computational neuroscience while working on interdisciplinary projects. In her free time, Megan enjoys dancing at DJ sets of all genres, crocheting, cooking, and thrifting.

Dmytro Fedorenko

PhD Candidate

Benjamin Lo

PhD Candidate

Ben is currently a PhD student in the Shape Analysis Group. He has a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Philosophy from McGill University, and is interested in both classical and AI-driven computer vision problems. His research is currently centred around microscopy image registration and human-inspired deep learning for computational perception.
