Research

A Gamified Go/No-Go Paradigm for the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit

BAYLOR COLLEGE OF MEDICINE · UNITY / C#

At Baylor College of Medicine, I developed a gamified inhibitory control task in Unity and C# for neuroscience research with epilepsy patients. Because patients in clinical settings have different abilities, I developed adaptive difficulty that adjusted in real time to each participant's performance. I also added a points-and-lives system and score display to keep participants engaged. Watching patients lean in and grin as they earned points made the work feel real: something I had coded was now an experience people wanted to participate in. The project led to a first-author Society for Neuroscience abstract and contributed to my recognition as a Regeneron STS Scholar and ISEF Finalist.
