Relaxed and enjoyable1
A PhD student in Electrical and Computer Engineering, Guilherme Borges conducts his research at INESC Coimbra - Institute for Systems and Computer Engineering in Coimbra, where he works on his PhD project “Federated Learning: strengthening privacy in machine learning applications.”
Why did you decide to participate in PubhD Coimbra?
I decided because I had already been once before. My friend Laura presented here two years ago, and last year she presented again, but I couldn't come. I was interested in presenting, I already had contributions and publications, so I had things to talk about regarding my thesis.
How was your experience at this edition of PubhD Coimbra?
It was good, it was good, it was relaxed. I was a little scared because I arrived a little early, and there was no one there yet, I didn't know, but it was a lot of fun.
Would you advise other colleagues to participate?
Yes! It's a good experience to share, educationally, with people from other areas, about what they are doing. I think dissemination is very important, so that the research being developed really reaches the entire academic community and the general population.
