I’m looking forward to continuing my research in developmental NeuroAI. If you are hiring in this area, I would love to hear from you.
Thank you very much to Guarantors of Brain for funding this travel and to CNS for the Graduate Student Award!
Delighted to share that I successfully defended my PhD thesis 'A Window into the Infant’s Visual World: Through a NeuroAI Lens' at @tcddublin.bsky.social, supervised by @rhodricusack.bsky.social. We used awake infant fMRI and deep neural networks to understand how infants perceive the visual world.
It has been such a privilege to be part of the Foundcog team and the @trinityneuro.bsky.social community. I’m incredibly grateful to Rhodri for this opportunity, and to @clionaod.bsky.social, @annatruzzi.bsky.social and the wider team for their contributions, support, and all the fun along the way.
I am very excited to be presenting our work using awake infant fMRI and developmentally inspired deep neural networks to better understand the visual features that the developing brain encodes infants view objects at #CNS2026 in Vancouver this week!
I will be presenting my poster D109 from 8-10 am this morning. Here is how it would look to a 2-month-old infant from a viewing distance of 1 m! If you are curious about our work, please stop by to learn more.
Why can't you remember being a toddler? Or can you?
Nice feature in Time of our lab's work on infantile amnesia at @tcddublin.bsky.social
Also of the labs of @sarahdpower.bsky.social at MPI Berlin, @franklandlab.bsky.social at Sick Kids, and Nick Turk-Browne at Yale.

We are still hiring for our computational focus lab coordinator position!
If you have a computational / software engineering background and are looking for more research experience before applying to graduate school, this would be a great fit.
