Allen Williams

I am a first year PhD student at MSU with a strong interest in mathematics, CS theory, and Artificial Intelligence. In my free time I love running, I have two cats, and I am learning a lot about cooking! My current research interests include strategic classification, reinforcement learning, and inverse reinforcement learning. I am also interested in combinatorics, graph theory, and discrete mathematics.



Niloufar Eghbali

I am a Ph.D. student at Michigan State University. Prior to MSU, I received an M.S. degree in Information Technology Engineering from Tarbiat Modares University and a B.S. degree in computer science from The University of Tehran. I am eager to learn and enjoy facing challenges. My chief areas of interest are Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. I am especially interested in applying AI to develop applicable methods with strong theoretical foundations to solve challenging problems in the field of medical and biological research.

Sari Sadiya

I am a Palestinian graduate student pursuing a dual Ph.D in computer science, and neuroscience. I earned Bachelors in both Computer Science and Mathematics from Technion and subsequently worked as a VLSI engineer at Apple Inc. before becoming a Fulbright grantee in MSU. I spend the little free time I have learning to play various instruments to various degrees of success.
