About Me

Eileen Nolan

Hello!

I am currently a second-year computer science Ph.D. student at Brown University. My research focuses on privacy-preserving cryptography, where I aim to develop technologies that enhance online privacy and address the growing vulnerabilities of our digital lives. I am advised by Dr. Anna Lysyanskaya.

My current research interests include:

  • Cryptographic image authentication to combat misinformation with the rise of AI
  • Onion encryption for secure and private message routing
  • Efficient, round-deterministic threshold signature schemes
  • Federated learning for decentralized and privacy-aware model training
  • Private Set Intersection (PSI) and related problems such as heavy hitters, with applications in secure and private ride-sharing systems
