Build a Reasoning Model (from Scratch)
Join us for another session of our study group as we cover the book Build a Reasoning Model (from Scatch). In this session, we will try to cover Chapter 1 titled "Understanding Reasoning Models", which defines what a Reasoning Model is and Chapter 2, on "Generating Text with an LLM".
This isn't just a lecture! Come ready to ask questions, share insights, and code along. Whether you're a beginner or have some experience, this is the perfect opportunity to continue to learn together. If you plan to work with the code on your own laptop during the session, try and download the code from it's GitHub repository at https://github.com/rasbt/reasoning-from-scratch ahead of time.
NOVA Brain Computing — DC's Only Community at the Brain–Machine Frontier
**The Neural Revolution Is Happening Right Now — Are You Plugged In?**
Imagine typing with your thoughts. Steering a robotic limb with a neural signal. Lifting depression by stimulating a single brain circuit. Loading a skill straight into memory.
This isn't science fiction. It's happening in labs, clinics, and startups around the world — and the DC region, home to NIH, the BRAIN Initiative, and DARPA's neural-interface programs, is one of the places it's being funded and built.
**This Event Is for You If…**
* ✅ You're a **technologist** curious about the computing paradigm beyond screens and keyboards
* ✅ You work in **healthcare** and want to see how neural interfaces will reshape patient care
* ✅ You're an **entrepreneur** hunting the next real opportunity in deep tech
* ✅ You're a **researcher** looking to plug into the broader BCI ecosystem
* ✅ You're simply **fascinated** by where neuroscience and technology collide
* ✅ You **missed our last meetup** and want to reconnect with the community
**Why That List Makes Us Unique in DC**
Read it again. A technologist, a clinician, a founder, a researcher, and the merely curious — in the same room, on the same afternoon.
That mix is the whole point, and it's what no other event in the region offers. Neuroscience conferences are built for neuroscientists. AI meetups are built for engineers. Healthcare summits are built for clinicians. Each one serves a single silo.
Brain computing doesn't live in any one of those silos — it lives in the overlap. So we built the one community in DC dedicated to that overlap: a place where the person decoding neural signals can talk to the person who'll commercialize the device, who can talk to the clinician who'll put it in front of a patient.
**What You'll Walk Away With**
This isn't just another tech meetup. Because of who's in the room, you get:
* **Frontline insight** from people actively decoding neural signals
* **Direct access** to the scientists, engineers, and founders pushing BCI forward — not a panel behind a rope line
* **Hands-on work** with real neural data and BCI systems
* **Career connections** in one of the fastest-growing fields in tech
* **First looks** at breakthrough research before it reaches mainstream media
**The Stakes Are Real**
We're at an inflection point. The next decade decides whether brain-computer interfaces *expand* human potential or *deepen* inequality — whether they're built in the open or behind closed doors, whether the benefits are shared or hoarded.
Your voice, your expertise, your perspective shapes which future we get.
**Join the Minds Shaping Tomorrow**
This is your entry point into the neural-interface revolution — your chance to stand alongside the researchers reading neural code, the engineers building the interfaces, the clinicians treating patients, and the founders bringing it all to market.
**Saturday, June 13 · 12:00–3:00 PM** isn't just a meetup. It's the one place in DC where all of those people come together around brain computing.
**Come curious. Leave connected. Return transformed.**
Because the future of human-computer interaction isn't happening *to* you — it's happening *with* you.

AI Meetup (June): Secure AI Agents
Important: Register on [AICamp website](https://www.aicamp.ai/event/eventdetails/W2026061814) is required for admission.
**Description:**
Welcome to the AI meetup in Washington DC. Join us for deep dive tech talks on AI, GenAI, LLMs and Agents, hands-on experiences on code labs, workshops, and networking with speakers and fellow developers.
**Agenda:**
\* 5:30pm\~6:00pm: Checkin, Food/drink and networking
\* 6:00pm\~8:00pm: Tech talks and Q&A
\* 8:00pm: Happy Hour at Courthouse Social (cross the street)
**Tech Talk: Secure Developer Environments in the Age of AI Agents**
**Speaker:** Patrick Brown (Coder)
**Abstract:** Federal engineering teams are under pressure to ship faster while meeting some of the most demanding security and compliance requirements in the world. In this talk, Patrick Brown of Coder explores how cloud development environments (CDEs) give agencies a foundation to accelerate software delivery without sacrificing control — and why that foundation matters even more as AI-powered coding agents enter the workflow. He'll cover how CDEs keep source code off endpoints, enforce zero-trust access patterns, and provide the consistent, ephemeral infrastructure that both human developers and AI agents need to operate safely at scale.
**Speakers:**
Stay tuned as we are updating speakers and schedules.
If you have a keen interest in speaking to our community, we invite you to submit topics for consideration: [Submit Topics](https://forms.gle/JkMt91CZRtoJBSFUA)
**Sponsors:**
We are actively seeking sponsors to support AI developers community. Whether it is by offering venue spaces, providing food, or cash sponsorship. Sponsors will not only speak at the meetups, receive prominent recognition, but also gain exposure to our extensive membership base of 5,000+ AI developers in D.C and 500K+ worldwide.
