About Me
Hi!
I'm Viviane Clay (formerly Viviane Kakerbeck), a PhD student in the Computational Cognition research training group at the University of Osnabrück in Germany.
I'm curious about many things but most of all I'd like to understand how we learn and understand the world. After getting a BSc and MSc in Cognitive Science I started to investigate this questions through the lense of biologically and psychologically inspired machine learning.
Besides my research I also love making music and movies.
