NYU GSTEM student visits during the summer of 2025
Ayla Zhang will join our research group this summer through the NYU GSTEM program. NYU GSTEM is a summer program for high school juniors that allows them to participate in research laboratories. The NYU Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences offers the program and helps promote STEM to traditionally underrepresented groups, particularly females and minorities. Ayla will be working on a programming language project as part of our funded NSF project on combating technical debt in Machine Learning systems‘ broader impacts.
