Serge Fehr

Senior Researcher, Cryptology Group, CWI Amsterdam

Professor, Mathematical Institute, Leiden University

I'm a scientific staff member of the Cryptology Group at CWI, the Dutch Center for Mathematics and Computer Science in Amsterdam, and a (part-time) full professor in the Faculty of Science at Leiden University. He participates in AMSec, the Amsterdam Cyber Security Center, and he is supported by NWO, the Dutch Research Council, and by DIAMANT, the Dutch national mathematics research network on Discrete, Interactive & Algorithmic Mathematics, Algebra & Number Theory.

Research interest: Foundations of cryptology, information-theoretic and (post-)quantum cryptography, secret sharing and secure multiparty computation, and zero-knowledge proofs.

Current and upcoming activities: Program committee member of EUROCRYPT 2023. Task leader in the NWO NWA HAPKIDO consortium. Co-organizer of the national Symposium Series on Post-Quantum Cryptography. Editorial board member of Journal of Cryptology and of IEEE Transactions on Information Theory. Steering committee member of the QCrypt and the Beyond IID conference series.

Open position: A 3-year post-doc position on the topic of post-quantum cryptography is available. If you are interested and can show an impressive track record on the topic, then please get in touch with me.
