ANOUSHKA D. SHAHANE

Hi there! I am a Product Manager at PROS, a global AI company that builds software for pricing, optimization, quoting, and rebate management.

I currently manage PROS Rebate Management, and enjoy leveraging agentic AI, platform thinking, and customer discovery to inform my product development.

I also have a dual-degree PhD in Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience and Behavioral Medicine. I worked with Dr. Bryan Denny in the BioScience Research Collaborative at Rice University. I am a proud alum of Tufts University '15 (go Jumbos!).

Previously, I worked with Drs. Mahzarin Banaji (Harvard), Jason Mitchell (Harvard), Diana Tamir (Princeton), and Heather Urry (Tufts).

I was an Associate Consultant at Putnam Associates (ranked as a top boutique consulting firm in North America by Vault) and the bioinformatics and computational chemistry intern at Cubist Pharmaceuticals.

I also was a recipient of the Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (National Institute of Health) Fellowship (F31) and the Rice University 2020 Vaughn Fellowship. I studied neurobiological and immunological mechanisms of affective processes and how they relate to cardiovascular disease among highly-stressed populations.

When I'm not doing research, you can probably find me in the ballet studio, playing piano, or drinking sugar with a side of coffee.
