Hi everyone, Is anyone up for sharing advice, info, examples of applications to OGS, or talking about an application? Feel free to email me and Arghavan Modiri <modiri.arghavan(a)gmail.com> if you do, or are willing to have a quick chat. When I apply for grants I find examples extremely helpful, even if in very different areas. We can capture this info in a Gdoc for future people in DGP and DCS: tiny.cc/dcsschol - Information about applying to Scholarships <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QNL6v3TamZPBgPUVAVTlBnWCqKKjL4XXUArU1No…> Joseph Joseph Jay Williams www.josephjaywilliams.com Assistant Professor Department of Computer Science, University of Toronto Intelligent Adaptive Interventions (IAI) research group
