Maria Ryskina she/they
Postdoc @ MIT studying how people and machines use language
I am a postdoctoral researcher at the McGovern Institute for Brain Research at MIT, working with Ev Fedorenko and Kyle Mahowald. My research studies long-tail phenomena in language using methodologies from natural language processing, machine learning, linguistics, and cognitive neuroscience.
I completed my PhD in Language and Information Technologies at Carnegie Mellon University, where I was co-advised by Matt Gormley, Ed Hovy, and Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick. Before that, I recieved my BSc and MSc degrees from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology and Skoltech. I had also spent time at MIT InfoLab (2015) and DiDi Labs (2020).
Outside of research, I sing with the MIT Concert Choir and am a core organizer at Queer in AI đ
