I have an open fully-funded PhD position in the broad area of language-based
security at University of Massachusetts Lowell (UMass Lowell). The successful
applicant will start in Fall 2024. Other starting (earlier/later) dates can
also be discussed.
Possible topics of research include but not limited to:
1. Building secure-by-construction applications involving secure hardware,
information-flow control and webassembly.
2. Developing frameworks for legally-compliant privacy applications (e.g.,
GDPR, HIPAA).
3. Reasoning about OS kernels to enforce full-stack security for
mission-critical applications.
The school of computer science at UMass Lowell has a vibrant and growing
programming languages and security groups providing excellent collaborative
opportunities for the successful candidate. To learn more:

Bio: I am currently a tenure-track assistant professor focusing on
language-based security in the Richard A. Miner School of Computer Science at
UMass Lowell. Before joining UMass Lowell, I was a CRA Computing Innovation
Fellow at Yale's Flint group. I received my Ph.D from Harvard University
(Thesis: "Secure-by-Construction Applications using Trusted Execution
Environments").
