Kyler's project, "A Deep Learning Approach Using Transformers for MRI Reconstruction of Undersampled K-Spaces," developed a new machine learning model to deconstruct and reconstruct MRI images. Once fully developed, this model has the potential to decrease time and cost of an MRI by 50%.

From CSISD:
On August 16, 2022, the CSISD Board of Trustees officially called for a voter-approved tax ratification election (VATRE) to be placed on the November ballot, with the additional revenue generated to be used for increasing CSISD employee compensation.

Ballot Language for CSISD Prop A:
"Ratifying the ad valorem tax rate of $1.1781 per $100 valuation in College Station Independent School District for the current year, a rate that will result in an increase of 6.07 percent in maintenance and operations tax revenue for the district for the current year as compared to the preceding year, which is an additional $6,519,285."
