Amazing video to be posted at the end of summer
Thanks for all your advice! You are a great inspiration to me :)
It's very hard to find motivation/concentration with this hot weather! In Spain it's almost +30 every day!
Even here in Asturias, and we are not used to it up here, so it's unbearable to work for long, stay strong
Really 🤣🤣 in Iran is above 35 💎😂😂
No AC?
@@MrVonzine we don't usually use AC here, not just because it's expensive but also because of the drawbacks such as moving the house's heat outside, making the streets hotter and affecting the climate negatively.
I would love to join a study group! Great idea! Love your videos and comp neuro
Me too! I'm a 25 year old woman btw despite the username xD
Same!
Idem 🌟
I'm with you 2
I would also love to join the study group!
This video is very helpful. Thank you very much!
Well since the summer is pretty much over.. I'll try again next year.
Thanks for the video Charlotte! I'm all for NMA! I attended it in 2020 and was fortunate to be a contributor in 2021. The course is extremely well structured and covers a lot of topics! Their Deep Learning course is also comprehensive and covers a variety of applications of DL related to CompNeuro. And you're right haha, it's super intense 😂
Your videos help me a lot, I am a student and you give a very good vibe, thanks for your work, greetings from Argentina.
Thank you for this. As a teenager in Mexico, I often feel lost with the options I have, not only for this summer but for the rest of the year. And this is a great guide. Thank you again!
Have you ever thought of making a video like this but for young people?
I love the feel of your video, the lighting, background 😍
😊 thank you
I want the study club!good idea :D
That feeling when the Fall semester has already begun. 😓
such useful video-would love the additional community engagement project(s) as I venture onto the 100 days coding course readying myself. Looking forward on connecting more in-depth view on Goodreads! Aside from video book reviews do you write reviews on Goodreads?
I'm going to try out that "100 Days of Code". Needing to build up Python skills.
Hi Charlotte
it's really nice to hear the " hiii" again😍
Actually I'm upgrading my knowledge and my resume as you say in this summer. But I need help to compare master's program in different universities/institute offered computational neuroscience program. I was extremely delightful if you make a video and talk about them as much as you know. Especially German universities like BCCN and TU Berlin and also your home university, Donders. About student atmosphere and competition, lectures' behaviour, teaching methods and level and also their grading .
Yes, thats a good idea! If you want some information before hand its good to find people that graduated from those places and ask them directly, also if you have some time I would recommend to take a summerschool for example at the places you are thinking of studying to get a better feel for the vibe :).
@@CharlotteFraza many thanks I do the same and one of knowledgeable people who I'm asking of , is you!
Interested in this studying group!!
Hi Charlotte, nice video. Really appriciate your efforts in making these and giving us valuable information about Neuroscience and other topics! Many thanks. But, there's something that I want you to start researching about, which is the Zettelkasten method of notetaking. You can find a lot of resources and I would like to see you express your thoughts on this productivity system (Yes, I would call it as such, because it completely changed the way I learn, create notes, and make new ideas). Have fun!
Wow, I looked it up and I never heard of this method before, looks very promising. Thank you! 🌸
@@CharlotteFraza Absolutely. It completely changed my life. I learn a lot of things everyday and I found it quite difficult to keep track of everything. I work as a freelancer as a data scientist, I study as cs undergrad at university, music theory, deep learning, mathematics, neuroscience, and so many more subjects and this one was the perfect match to my knowledge management. I would love to see you express your thoughts and ideas on this system and maybe, hopefully, you start inculcating this into your life too!
I have been working on exactly this (showing my work) actually! I recently started my own study with me channel, but I got discouraged because my (very new and very expensive) computer keeps getting a blue screen of death error and freezes when I use Adobe programs, this has persisted for many days despite my best efforts to resolve the error T_T I went back to learning Japanese instead and am taking two udemy courses on data science with Python and app development. I just finished my master's degree in Neuroscience and Neuroimaging and am thinking of leaving lab work behind and getting into data science/the computational side of neuroscience, so your videos really inspire me, thank you for making them and "showing them" :)
Wow, amazing you are learning so much, good luck with your journey 🌸
@@CharlotteFraza Thank you, you too 😊😊🌼
Hi! I'm interested in a study group, sounds great!
I would love to join a study group too!
Hi Charlotte, your videos are inspiring! I myself am a rising 6th-year Ph.D. student doing Neuroscience research at Cornell. Looking to improve my computational neuroscience skills and was planning to do the Machine learning specialization course by Andrew Ng. I was thinking the progress will be better if there is an accountability buddy. Let me know if you are someone interested in taking that course or some other similar course. Also, in general, the study group sounds like a good idea!
Hi! Great video! I am a Ph.D. student doing neurobiology and a little bit of computational neuroscience. I'm very interested in your learning group:)
I'd love to participate in the study group. I'm a bioinformatics PhD student and I am actually working during the summer on my project, as I'm doing it in industry, but as the work load on other projects is lower during the summer, I am planning on doing a couple of courses during the rest of August to add some skills to my resume. Having someone to share my advances with would be nice and would keep me motivated.
Interested in a study group!
Hi! I started taking an interest last year on Semantics, specifically formal semantics and logic, but after I finish my current undergrad thesis I am interested in checking Neurolinguistics and Computational linguistics, do you think any of these specialties can help me to learn coding or did coding get too far from these fields for the sake of programmers?
If I would start in this field I would take the most hardcore programming courses available at my uni, as computational linguistics uses quite complex machine learning algorithms. So I would start with the programming and then take 'extra' courses in linguistics on the side 🌸
@@CharlotteFraza Thanks for the tip! Although i don't think my uni has such courses I'll try online, right now I am using the Cambrige series of linguistic books or "red books" as we usually call them and they are being a good introduction but I admit sometimes I have to reread some parts to fully understand them. Coding is not really my passion or anything like that but it is a good way to employ my passion of semantics.
Can you also share resources that helped you to learn French? Duolingo doesn't cut it for me
Italki and linguda :)
I am interested in the study group
Hi Charlotte, I am also a PhD student from BSI at Radboud. I really love your UA-cam channel, think I learned a lot! May I ask you a question？In your previous video you said that it's better to set a reading time every day to read paper/article/literature. May I know when is your reading time for paper every day? In the morning/afternoon/evening? I find myself struggle with finding such reading time
Yes, I still struggle with this as well, but I usually have all the papers on my phone or Ipad for example and then just grab it whenever I have time (on the train, between meetings etc.)
@@CharlotteFraza I see, good idea! Thanks for your reply
Hey, how come you are telling me now -- after summer is almost over? Now, I'm going to have to wait until next summer to get smarter. That sucketh.
Hi everyone, 😊
I hope everyone is doing great. I am an undergraduate software engineering student. I am here to ask you for advice.
I have been quite productive this summer. I have been learning a new programming language, new frameworks and going to gym during this summer. And I am going to do an internship at the last month of my summer. However, I am living alone and, still could not build the habit that I clean my home and washing my dishes regularly.
I would love to hear your advice.
Hi, ilker. I am glad to see you learn a new programming language, trust me, its a super power! About your habit of cleaning your home, and washing your dishes - these are tasks that take up very less space in our brain that makes us think that they're not trivial. I have been in the same position an year ago, and my room and my home was a complete mess! But, I have changed with a simple rule. Which is to do the task, at least for 5 minutes. Even if its not cleaning the entire load of dishes, or cleaning just your room - just do it for 5 minutes. And do this consistently and regularly. This deeply impacts the circuits in your brain and forms a habit. The key here is, you need to do it even if you don't feel like doing it. Then, it becomes a habit! But, initially, you may find it hard to even get started - for that, I would suggest you to trick your brain into thinking that you are going to do it just for a minute, and once you start, you already begun the process and you can push it to 5 minutes. That helped me a lot in the beginning. I hope this helps you too!
@@hemanthkotagiri8865 I do this too! Instead of doing all the dishes, I just do like one. Then I often end up doing the whole thing even though it wasn't the plan haha! But sometimes just one. One is better than none.
@@hemanthkotagiri8865 Thanks for your time. I am going to try this out.
