Hello everyone,

A reminder to join us for our QBio seminar tomorrow!  The flyer is attached and a brief research overview is below.

Friday, December 9

Speaker:  Gautam Reddy - Harvard University and NTT Research
Title:  Physics of animal learning and decision-making
Time:  11:30 am - 12:30 pm
Location:  YSB 352

"Gautam is an excellent theoretician studying how biological systems learn what actions to perform in order to maximize success. Working at the intersection of statistical mechanics, control theory, information theory and machine learning, he has studied how birds can learn to soar, how olfactory systems can encode the identity of a scent, and various other problems in genetics and neuroscience. He is an independent postdoc who holds a joint appointment in the Center for Brain Science at Harvard University and the Intelligent Systems group at NTT Research Inc., which sponsors basic science research at the interface of physics and computation."

Here is his google scholar page: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=QkblqWwAAAAJ&hl=en<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fscholar.google.com%2Fcitations%3Fuser%3DQkblqWwAAAAJ%26hl%3Den&data=05%7C01%7Cwti.spc%40yale.edu%7C1d17eb9688cb46657e7408dad951904f%7Cdd8cbebb21394df8b4114e3e87abeb5c%7C0%7C0%7C638061241613013694%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=AVadsKkxiCpTwvZznbNvHQyHpW9wOQ0GzGUuDv%2FeO%2Fs%3D&reserved=0>
