Rebecca Ramnauth, a postdoc in our lab, was selected to participate in the 2025 Rising Stars in EECS Workshop, hosted by MIT and Boston University on October 30–31, 2025. Rising Stars is an intensive, two-day workshop designed to support women graduate students, postdocs, and recent Ph.D.s pursuing academic careers in electrical engineering, computer science, and related fields. Since its launch at MIT in 2012, the program has become one of the most competitive and influential career development events in the field. This year, 327 applicants applied and 70 were selected (~21% acceptance). At the workshop, Rebecca will present her research, engage in scientific discussions, and connect with leading faculty to explore the opportunities and challenges of academic life.
