Redwood is delighted to announce the graduation (back in December 2021) of Sophia Sanborn! Sophia’s research employs mathematical principles from group theory to interpret neural representations in biological systems and build useful neural representations in artificial systems. Her thesis documents efforts toward developing mathematically robust invariants in the context of machine learning, signal processing, and associative memories. Sophia has taken a co-postdoctoral scholarship position at the Redwood Center and BioShape Lab at UCSB under Nina Miolane, where she will continue to explore geometric machine learning.

The Redwood Center is grateful for the opportunity to continue working with her! Congratulations Sophia!
