Career panel and Mentoring round tables @ ALT 2024 in San Diego, CA
in partnership with the Learning Theory Alliance
We are delighted to announce that this year, Shubhada Agrawal, Claire Vernade and Vidya Muthukumar (Let-All) have partnered to organize a special in-person even at the ITALT Symposium (ITA+ALT) in San Diego. The program will be announced soon and will feature a career advice panel (~45 minutes) followed by mentoring round tables together with a coktail reception. We hope to foster exchanges between the Information Theory and Learning Theory communities as well as across generations of researchers.
ITALT is a separate event from ALT and ITA and can be attended separately. Registration will be open soon via the ITA website.
