I’m a PhD candidate at the Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty, Technion under the supervision of Prof. Ittay Eyal and Prof. Aviv Tamar. In addition, I’m a member of the Initiative for Cryptocurrencies & Contracts.
My research interests include blockchain protocols and reinforcement learning. The goal of my research is to ensure the security of blockchain protocols and decentralized applications. I mainly analyze incentive compatibilty, i.e., trying to understand whether participants are incentivized to behave as intended. This is a crucial security aspect of blockchains due to their anonymous and decentralized nature. To perform my analyses, I utilize deep reinforcement learning and other computational tools.
I received my BSc (Magna Cum Laude) in applied mathematics from Bar-Ilan University and my MSc (Magna Cum Laude) in computer science from Technion.
