Andrii Zahorodnii

I earned my undergraduate degree and am currently a master's student at MIT in Computer Science and Brain and Cognitive Sciences. I am interested in the intersection of neuroscience and ML, especially self-supervised feature learning using human neural data at scale. I am currently advised by Prof. Ila Fiete, and in the past by Guangyu Robert Yang.

I co-founded the Ukraine Leadership and Technology Academy to equip young Ukrainians with the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to rebuild Ukraine into a thriving, European nation. I won the Schwarzman Scholarship and am a Cerebras Fellow. I co-organize TEDxMIT. I was awarded the 2025 Glushko Prize for Outstanding Research (4/17/2025).
