I have the great fortune to be demonstrating a graduate course on Geometric Deep Learning at Oxford. I have decided to start a self-contained YouTube series on some of the topics covered for students and non-students! Check out the first episode on GCNs! youtube.com/watch?v=CwHNUX…

Today I finished my 8 month internship at @GoogleDeepMind. A big thanks to @PetarV_93 and the long list of brilliant people I’ve met for the wonderful time. I leave GDM with many new ideas and a lot of excitement. Final stretch of the PhD ahead now! 🫡

Heading tomorrow to Vancouver for NeurIPS! Please do reach out if you want to chat about reasoning in Transformers / LLMs :) I'll be presenting our work "Transformers need glasses! 👓" on Thursday at 4:30pm at East Exhibit Hall A-C #1806.

* Locality-Aware Graph-Rewiring in GNNs * with amazing collaborators @ameya_pa Amin Saberi @mmbronstein, and rewiring CEO @Francesco_dgv arxiv.org/abs/2310.01668 We argue that rewiring should (i) reduce over-squashing, (ii) be local, and (iii) remain sparse. A (short) thread👽!

Farewell @MSFTResearch AI4Science. I had a beautiful summer in Amsterdam surrounded by truly amazing researchers. Back to Oxford now! (with a pit stop in Italy first 😉)

Happy that the neurips deadline is now behind us. Closed overleaf, slept and touched some grass :)

Due to popular demand, the Erlangen Space Program continues! This time we have landed on an alien planet infested with Red Michael Rangers. What a great opportunity to stop and talk about Graph Attention Networks :-) youtube.com/watch?v=iAEDA8…

Have you ever thought about incorporating attention into sheaf neural networks? Well, we have! Our work w/ @crisbodnar, Haitz Sáez, and @pl219_Cambridge will appear at the NeurReps workshop at #Neurips2022 as an oral! See you in New Orleans :-)

Accidentally stumbling upon signed boards by @MagnusCarlsen @GMJuditPolgar @VBkramnik @Kasparov63 at the office was really cool
