Aditya Hegde
I’m a PhD student in the ARC group at Johns Hopkins University where I’m advised by Abhishek Jain and Matthew Green. My research interests are in cryptography and more broadly, in theoretical computer science.
From June to July 2024, I visited Geoffroy Couteau. In 2021, I completed an Integrated Masters (B.Tech + M.Tech) in Computer Science and Engineering at IIIT Bangalore, where I was advised by Ashish Choudhury. During Spring 2021, I worked with members of the CrIS Lab under the supervision of Arpita Patra.
