Welcome back, Catherine Havasi!


By Rob Speer - Posted on 10 August 2009

Catherine Havasi co-created the Open Mind Common Sense project, as an undergraduate researcher working with Push Singh way back in 1999. For the last five years, she's been working on a doctorate in computational linguistics at Brandeis University. She's been doing a lot of cross-campus research with this group.

Last month, she finally earned her Ph.D (congratulations!). Now, she's returned to the Media Lab as a post-doc, where she'll once again be able to work on Open Mind and its applications full time. It's great to have her as an official part of the group again!

This is great news.
