Personal profile
Overview
I am a Lecturer (equivalent to an Assistant Professor) in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Manchester. Previously, I finished my role as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at Imperial College London, where I also completed my PhD.
My research interests lie in the domain of privacy and security within decentralized and distributed computing systems, with a particular focus on blockchain and decentralized AI systems, as well as the underlying cryptographic primitives and protocols that support and secure them. Currently, I am exploring the following topics:
- Blockchain: privacy, security, consensus, and applications
- Applied cryptography: classical and post-quantum solutions
- Decentralized AI: security, privacy, and incentive mechanisms
