Modelled after the Mila program, Vector has launched a grad app portal. I’m a participating faculty member and am looking for PhD students to join my group starting Fall 2027. Check it out!

t’s that time of year again: graduate admissions season. Inspired by @phillipisola.bsky.social post on doing a PhD in the age of AI (highly recommended!), I share some thoughts on how to email a professor about joining their lab. 1/2
