Urvashi Khandelwal
I am a Research Scientist at Google DeepMind, where I work on natural language processing and machine learning. My research interests lie in understanding and improving the generalization capabilities of language models and multimodal models, and building systems that can adapt to new tasks and changing data distributions.
I received my PhD in Computer Science at Stanford University, where I worked with the Stanford Natural Language Processing Group and was advised by Professor Dan Jurafsky.
