Hi everyone, time for self short introduction!
I am a French researcher with a keen interest in sports science and neuroscience. As a former physical therapist, I have a background in clinical research and have since shifted my focus towards data-driven research. As a postdoc at the University of Tokyo, I’m trying my best to conduct fMRI studies! Still struggling, so I might post a lot here…
Thank you all for the support and detailed answers! I’ve learn a lot from Neurostars forums already.
Hi everyone! 
I’m Govind Gupta, a software developer with a keen interest in AI, machine learning, and backend development. I have experience working with Spring Boot, MongoDB, Redis, and Kafka, and I enjoy building scalable and efficient systems.
Currently, I’m working on a Journal App with Google OAuth 2.0 authentication and exploring recommender systems for my Bachelor Thesis Project. I’ve also worked on projects like a Quiz App backend and a Stock Price Prediction model.
Looking forward to learning from this community and contributing where I can! If anyone has insights on neuroscience applications in AI/ML, I’d love to discuss.

At the website, you can also sign up for DLF communiques and the DLF quarterly newsletter. Here’s to the success of your work!
Hey everyone! 
My name is Josh, and I am a Final Year student studying Software Systems Development. For my final year project I am building a proof of concept software system that can help and aid the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. This system aims to be a combination of tools such as MRI viewers within the browser, tracking patients in terms of medical history related to the Alzheimer’s Diagnosis but also a classification model that could also help with analyzing the patients scans.
Currently I am using the ADNI1 dataset for the classification model and I am using the FSL library for registration and reorientation for the images. But it seems I am running into issues regarding the performance of the registration using FLIRT.
I hope to get talking with some like minded people on this platform and learn something new!
Hi, I’m Vidhi Rohira, a sophomore at Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute (VJTI), Mumbai, India. I have a keen interest in open-source contributions, reinforcement learning, and AI research.
During Summer 2024, I worked on Super MaRLo Bros, a project where I explored reinforcement learning algorithms to train an AI agent to play a custom game inspired by Super Mario. This involved experimenting with Q-learning, Deep Q-Networks (DQN), and Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO), ultimately concluding that PPO provided better results.
Additionally, I have participated in several hackathons and competitions across colleges, which have strengthened my understanding of LLMs, AI-driven systems, and community-driven research. These experiences have given me hands-on exposure to working with AI models and developing solutions that align with real-world applications.
I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to GSoC 2025 Project Idea #5: Open Source Community Sustainability, as my interests in AI, research, and open-source collaboration align with the project’s goals. I look forward to leveraging my experience and learning from the community to make meaningful contributions.
I’d love to hear any guidance or suggestions on how I can further prepare for GSoC and improve my contributions. Are there specific areas I should focus on to strengthen my application and make a greater impact?

Hi!
I am Nabhojyoti Chattopadhyay. I am a final year master’s student at the Centre of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences, India where I am specializing in Cognitive Neurosciences. I am interested to pursue graduate studies in the field of Computational Psychiatry. I am excited to join the Neurostars community to sharpen my programming skills by contributing to open-source projects in neuroscience.
Currently, in my master’s thesis, I am employing spiking neural network model of the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamocortical loop to model inhibitory control using a stop-signal task. I would love to discuss it further and get some insights as well.
I am excited to be a part of this community and I hope to engage in discussions which may lead to possible collaborations.
Looking forward to learn and grow!!
Thank you!
