Following the success of the first episode of Tufa Talks, we’re excited to announce the second session: on May 26, Mattia Rigotti from IBM Research Zürich will join us at Tufa Labs.

Mattia is a Senior Research Scientist at IBM Research Zürich and holds a PhD in Neuroscience from Columbia University. His work sits at the intersection of machine learning and neuroscience, covering topics such as LLM reasoning, visual foundation models, and the geometry of neural representations in the brain.

Due to the strong interest in our first episode, we have increased the capacity for this event—hopefully allowing more of you to join this time.

Doors open at 17:45 and close promptly at 18:00. The evening will feature the talk, followed by an open Q&A, with pizza, drinks, and networking afterwards.

Spots remain limited and registration is subject to approval. Sign up below for the second Tufa Talk with Mattia Rigotti.
