Had the pleasure of visiting Okko Räsänen’s lab at Tampere Univ. Gave a talk on our work on computational models of speech acquisition and served as the opponent in the PhD defense of María Andrea Cruz Blandón, an impressive body of work. Congrats to her & the group, a great place for research!

🚨 Open PhD Position – Grenoble, France 🚨 Join us at GIPSA-lab to explore how Speech Language Models can learn like children: through physical and social interaction. Think AI, robots, development 🧠🤖🎙️ Fully funded (3 yrs) • @cnrs.fr / @ugrenoblealpes.bsky.social Details 👉 tinyurl.com/bde988b3

🚀 I’m excited to announce the launch of our new research chair DevAI&Speech (2025–2029), funded by the Grenoble AI Institute MIAI Cluster IA! The project explores how human developmental processes can inspire more grounded and socially aware conversational AI (1/6).
