Biography
I am a researcher at the ENS Crypto Team in Paris. Previously I was an Assistant Professor at Queen’s University Belfast. I also held postdoc positions at Darmstadt University of Technology, in the Cryptoplexity team led by Marc Fischlin . Information Security Group, Royal Holloway, University of London. Department of Informatics , University of Minho, Portugal. Institute of Applied Mathematics, Middle East Technical University, in Ankara, Turkey. I completed my Ph.D. at the Department of Computer Science, University of Bristol. I studied Mathematics to Part III at Queens’ College, University of Cambridge.
Research Interest
I am interested in the rigorous development of cryptographic primitives, security models, and relationship between primitives. Recently, I have been working on idealized models of computation such as the random-oracle and the ideal-cipher models and asymmetric cryptosystems such as functional and homomorphic encryption schemes.
