Julia Gorman

Julia Gorman is a PhD student in Neurosciences at UC San Diego in the Gentner lab. She uses artificial neural networks to understand how populations of neurons efficiently carry information. She studies both how context affects auditory perception and signaling in the auditory cortex of European starlings as well as how networks can create open learning for vocal communication. Her interests in CARTA lie in understanding how language and perception arises from populations of neurons and parallels between communication in the animal kingdom.
