BCCCD 2023.
I presented in Budapest as part of a symposium on Infant and Machine Intelligence in Interdisciplinary Dialogue. It was a super exciting opportunity to speak alongside such great people from a breadth of expertise in development and AI. Matt Botvinick had some interesting comments and questions for us regarding the future of this interdisciplinary work and it really got me thinking about my next steps.
CCN 2022.
This San Francisco conference was a great return to in person discussions of all things Cog Comp Neuro. You can check out my poster and paper to see what I presented. If I had pick one highlight of the conference it would be Gal Vishne’s work on sustained representation dynamics. Really rigorous, interesting and well-presented work from an early career female researcher coming out of Israel.
Creative Brain Week 2022.
Being able to communicate our science to the public is such a valuable opportunity. It allows me to take a step back and consider what it is I actually do every day, the impact it has and the people who it’s ultimately for. Working on this talk for Creative Brain Week was so exciting for me, especially because I could frame my science alongside another one of my passions - theatre.
NeurIPS ‘20 and CVPR ‘21.
Getting my work seen at these competitive conferences was a proud achievement for me. The Self-Supervised learning workshop at NeurIPS gave me a chance to think more deeply about this method and how I can leverage it within the NeuroAI and developmental work I’m doing. The Women in Computer Vision workshop at CVPR was such a fun, inclusive and inspiring environment and one which I’d love to engage further with in the future.
ICIS 2020.
This was a conference of firsts for me - my first time interacting with the developmental community, my first online conference, my first presentation at a conference and the first results presented from my PhD! It was really memorable, and it’s fun to look back and see how far this work has come.
