Massive congratulations to Dr. Melody Dye, who is the recipient of this year's Glushko Dissertation Award from the Cognitive Science Society. This very competitive award is highest honor in our field for a graduate student, won for Melody's doctoral dissertation "Bridging Levels of Analysis: Learning, Information Theory, and the Lexicon." It also comes with $10k, so that isn't bad either. Melody will receive the award and give a talk on her dissertation work at this year's Cognitive Science Society Conference in Madison. |
