Angelos Pelecanos

I am a first-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at UC Berkeley, fortunate to be advised by Prof. Shafi Goldwasser.

My research interests lie in the theoretical analysis of practical cryptosystems, such as block ciphers, and in cryptography in the quantum age.

In Spring 2022 I received an M.Eng. degree from MIT, where I was lucky to work under the supervision of Prof. Vinod Vaikuntanathan. I graduated with a bachelors degree in Computer Science and Engineering and in Mathematics in Spring 2021 from the same institution. I am grateful for the mentorship of Prof. Virginia Vassilevska Williams during my undergraduate studies.
