Teaching & Talks

My journey of sharing passion and knowledge through teaching and public engagement.

Invited Lectures and Talks

  1. Fall 2019- 2024 (except 2022-2024): Fall 2019-2024: Invited by Prof. Ross Otto to deliver a guest lecture in PSYC 513, focusing on reinforcement learning from fundamental concepts to planning techniques, tailored for psychology students.
  2. November 2023: Presented our work on “Continual Reinforcement Learning in Hippocampally-Inspired ML Models” at the Inter-Lab Symposium, a seminar engaging NeuroAI labs at McGill University, attended by both experimental and computational neuroscience researchers.
  3. November 2025: Presented my work on “Brain-Inspired Continual Reinforcement Learning Agents” during a visit to Prima Mente, a NeuroAI startup in London, where I shared insights on how neuroscience principles can inform the design of adaptive and memory-efficient RL agents.
  4. November 2025: Presented my talk “Brain-Inspired Continual Reinforcement Learning Agents” at Prof. Rui Ponte Costa’s lab, University of Oxford, during my visit to discuss ongoing research at the intersection of neuroscience and reinforcement learning.
