Rebecca received her B.Sc. from the University of Toronto and her Ph.D. from UC Berkeley.
Her research program investigates when and how children learn about - and consequently
learn from - symbolic systems, such as language and pictures. Specifically, her
postdoctoral work investigates the development of picture comprehension across
cultures and contexts.

Received a BSC in electrical engineering from University of Khartoum, and then received a master degree
in computer science from Arizona state university and a master degree in cognitive science from Columbia
university. I have been interested in the study of cognitive development and language development in particular.
I am intrigued by the intersection between language and cognition. I am also interested in the cross-cultural
approaches of conducting research in cognitive development.

Steven is a Computer Science PhD student, working with the Stanford AI and NLP groups. He completed a master's
at Carnegie Mellon University and an undergrad at the University of Waterloo. He wishes to advance AI by integrating
multidisciplinary knowledge, with an emphasis on enhancing machine understanding and generation of human language and
vision. This includes exploring methods to improve the controllability and reasoning of language and visual models,
and investigating cognitive strategies to align human and machine learning.

expanding my understanding of different approaches in the field. Children's development of morality and beliefs about
right and wrong also interests me. I am excited to learn more about children’s learning, behavior, and beliefs.
