Monty Progress Update/ Research Updates

Sebas, 10 September 2025

Research Updates

  • I might be applying to Goldwater this semester, we shall see!
  • Going to continue working with Mohamed for the next year and will start working with Partha next semester
    • Monty research is going slowly due to classes and commitments to CompNeuroSociety. I am in the process of reading a couple papers assigned to me by Mohamed.
    • Partha suggested I try to understand how Karl Friston’s models work and then do an informal presentation to him either in the second half of September or in October (I think October would be best for me)

Dilemma

  • I am unsure how to tie Monty into the research I will be doing with Partha. Mohamed suggested that I send Partha the papers he assigned me and then try to arrange a meeting with Partha and Mohamed :-)

CNS Updates and Goals

  • Projects are off to a good start thanks to Andre and Dion. They are doing a good job so far.
  • Workshop planning is moving slowly but has to ramp up soon, as the workshops are getting closer
  • I am interested in applying for an IDEA grant for a project with a CNS member to extend the work I am doing with Mohamed
