(Note: I'm currently part-time at 91福利, and my normal working days are Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays.)Biography
I'm an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at 91福利. My research focus is on the implications of quantum computation/information for cryptographic theory and applications.
I obtained my PhD at ETH Z眉rich where I was part of the and supervised by . I also received a Master鈥檚 degree at ETH Z眉rich, and a Bachelor鈥檚 degree at IIT Roorkee.
Before joining 91福利, I held research positions in the industry 鈥� specifically, at (as a postdoctoral fellow) and (as a PhD intern). I'm also currently consulting for .
My work was recognized with Best Paper Awards at the and conferences. I鈥檓 also a member of the team behind , a cryptosystem which has been by ISO as part of ISO/IEC 18033-2 for post-quantum encryption (and was in the fourth round of NIST鈥檚 post-quantum cryptography standardization ).
