I am a lecturer at the Department of Computer Science in the Faculty of Science of the University of Porto (DCC-FCUP) and a researcher at HASLab/INESC TEC. My research interests lie in Cryptography and Information Security and its intersection with Program Verification.I hold a Ph.D. in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from the Newcastle University, an M.Sc. from the same University, and a degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto. In the past I have been a visiting researcher at the University of Bristol, IT Porto and École Normale Supérieure.I have been working on the development of high-assurance cryptographic implementations for the last 10 years, aiming to bridge the gap between theoretical security and real-world security. I am particularly interested in provable security and its interplay with the formal verification of cryptographic proofs and cryptographic software implementations.For information on my research, projects and publications, please see my page at HASLab.For information on my teaching activities, please see my institutional page at FCUP.
