I was able to record a series of videos with Dr. Nirma Jayawardena on the following topics:
1. How to find a research supervisor and Fully funded PhD programs: https://youtu.be/IKg4mDeypYU
2. How to write a research proposal for a PhD program: https://youtu.be/isWqeo_POXM
3. Things to do during your PhD: Networking, conferences, job search https://youtu.be/6B8Rq0CKZ04

I've been working on the IQ Labs website in the past two months and it is now available on: www.iqlabs.edu.lk
You can subscribe to my email newsletter and get updates if I am doing something new.
This website will provide you with the following:
• FAQ – frequently asked questions from users. How do I make videos, how to contact me, how do I tie my shoelaces etc.
• Research – The projects I’ve worked on with links to publications (From undergraduate to PhD)
• Courses – All my videos are categorized here. I might change the layout, but it’s more organized than the channel. Please check this out.
• Blog – incase I’m doing something new, or if my Dad writes a cool article – I will post it here.

I made a video series on the behind in the language. There is a lot of buzz going around (Artificial Intelligence), but I believe it is important to understand the basics behind it. I will mainly discuss image classification using convolutional neural networks (CNN).
Link to my videos series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuiDzxVT78sS-z-06QCVfbGRnU288DUqw
This video series will cover the following:
1. How neural networks behave and the logic that’s used
2. Mathematical functions and operators behind CNN
3. How computers recognize images
4. My research using Deep Learning
5. How to get started and what to learn

These videos were inspired by Luis Serrano and I have used his technique to explain how CNN works. Please check out his channel on Serrano Academy.
