Inspired by Chi-Ning Chou’s blog about his PhD reflection, I’ve set some goals as I begin my PhD at UNC Chapel Hill:

πŸ… Best paper award at a top-tier conference (ICML, NeurIPS, ICLR)
🧠 One paper in Nature or Science
🌍 Internship at a top lab (e.g., DeepMind, OpenAI)
🏞️ Visit 10 national parks in US
πŸƒ Qualify for and run the Boston Marathon

I’d be interested to hear about your PhD goals and your experiences in striving to achieve them – feel free to reach out !
