Dr Kafoutchoni’s reading

The key phrase here is « brief description »: in a few lines, you need to show that your topic fits the group, not recount your whole background. Add a verifiable example of code, a publication, or a project, aimed at one of the position’s themes. If you have already worked on deep learning or programming, make that visible at the start of the email. Send a clean application, then check the subject line « PhD Application, Your Name » before sending.
