Dan Rasmussen is now ABD. He easily defended his CS PhD thesis proposal on a biological implementation of Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning. Congrats!
Congratulations to Trevor Bekolay who won the highly competitive Cheriton Scholarship, awarded to outstanding PhD students in Computer Science at Waterloo. The scholarship provides $10K/year for two years.
We just had the large-scale brain model Spaun accepted for publication in the top journal Science. It should be out in a few months. Congratulations to everyone who worked on this ambitious project.
