Landed back in the UK. Definitely learnt a lot working with Steven Pan’s lab on our pretesting project. Also, managed to eat exceptionally well on a budget in the Hawker Centres too!

Memory-sky: I'm going to be teaching a new (open!) grad course in the spring, where we read about and implement some memory models (and ideally for them to some small datasets). Looking for suggestions to include!
I could go "classic" (Hopfield nets, SAM, TCM, etc.), or "modern" with newer stuff 🤔

Question:
If you have a degree beyond your undergraduate degree, did you switch disciplines/fields? If so, what was the progression of your disciplines? Example: I am a chemical engineer (undergraduate) turned economist of technical change (Masters) turned political scientist/human geographer (PhD)
