Hi, I'm Lali Devadas. I completed my PhD in the Cryptography and Information Security group at MIT, where I was very lucky to be co-advised by Yael Tauman Kalai and Vinod Vaikuntanathan. I am broadly interested in cryptography and security, including non-interactive proof systems and secure computation.
In fall 2026, I will be starting as an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at The Cooper Union.
