I am actively looking for PhD students interested in several research topics that include smart contracts and cryptocurrencies, distributed network algorithmics, non-volatile memory, secure multi-party computation.

If you are a PhD already at USC and wish to work with me, please contact me directly or feel free to come by my office. Otherwise please send in your application through the USC CS application portal (https://www.cs.usc.edu/admission/) and indicate my name in your application.
