Hi there, I'm Yash! πŸ‘‹

I'm a PhD student in Computational Cognitive Science at Johns Hopkins University, with a background in computer science. My research explores the intersection of deep learning, cognitive science, and neuroscience. Currently, I'm collaborating with Professor Mick Bonner.

My experiences include:

  • 🧠 Neuroscience and cognitive processes
  • πŸ€– Transformers and Large Language Models (LLMs)
  • πŸ“Š Deep learning and artificial intelligence

Before starting my PhD, I worked as a software developer at Amazon.
