Vishakh Iyer conducts research in medicine and neuroscience, with a focus on Parkinson's disease using preclinical (animal-based) models. Much of this work examines brain circuits controlling movement, the effects of the drug levodopa on symptoms like involuntary movements (dyskinesias) and sleep disturbances, and drug-receptor mechanisms in the brain. A smaller set of earlier publications also touches on technology topics such as Internet-of-Things systems and mobile networks.
