Ethan Mook
I am a third year PhD student at Northeastern University where I am advised by Daniel Wichs. Before that, I was an undergraduate student at the University of Michigan.
I am broadly interested in theoretical cryptography. Most recently, I have worked on adapting cryptographic primitives to the RAM model of computation. Other areas of interest include metacomplexity, proof systems and post-quantum cryptography.
