Christian Janos Lebeda

I am a PhD student affiliated with the Basic Algorithms Research Copenhagen center and the Algorithms Group at the IT University of Copenhagen. My supervisors are Rasmus Pagh and Martin Aumüller. My main research interest is the design and analysis of differentially private algorithms and data structures. I am currently visiting Gautam Kamath and The Salon at the University of Waterloo.
