How to Start

For junior researchers

  1. Pick one small benchmark from the board.
  2. Reproduce one figure or one error table.
  3. Write a one-page note explaining what you observed.
  4. Email the note with your code link and one clear question.

For collaborators

  • Send a short problem statement and where your expertise connects.
  • Include any preprint, code, dataset, or benchmark you want to discuss.
  • Suggest a concrete first step: experiment, reading group, note, or joint seminar.
