I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Cornell Tech at Cornell University, arXiv's associate faculty director, and a researcher at ASAPP. I hold a B.Sc. from Tel Aviv University and a Ph.D. from the University of Washington, where I was advised by Luke Zettlemoyer.

I study natural language modeling and learning. My lab has worked on a diverse set of topics over the years, including learning from interactions and feedback, reinforcement learning for language acquisition, grounded and multimodal language modeling, and evaluation. Our research is anchored in language modeling, natural language processing, and machine learning, but often reaches out to other areas, including robotics, computer vision, and cognitive science. Our work has been recognized by an NSF CAREER award, paper awards, honorable mentions, and spotlight presentations at ACL, EMNLP, NAACL, NeurIPS, and IROS, as well as a TACL test-of-time award.

I post paper recommendations at RecNet (our paper recommendation network), am building a new academic community with COLM, and (very) occasionally (b)log.
