Professor, NYU

Yevgeniy Dodis is a Fellow of the International Association for
Cryptologic Research, and a Professor of Computer Science at New York University. Dr. Dodis received his summa cum laude Bachelors degree in Mathematics and Computer Science from New York University in 1996, and
his PhD degree in Computer Science from MIT in 2000. Dr. Dodis was apost-doc at IBM T.J.Watson Research center in 2000, and joined New York University as an Assistant Professor in 2001. He was promoted to Associate Professor in 2007 and Full Professor in 2012.

Dr. Dodis' research is primarily in cryptography and network security.
He worked in a variety of areas, including random number generation,
secure messaging, leakage-resilient cryptography, cryptography under
weak randomness, cryptography with biometrics and other noisy data,
hash function and block cipher design, protocol composition and
information-theoretic cryptography. Some of his work on Random Number
Generation, Hash Functions and Secure Messaging has had real-world
impact (e.g., for Zoom, Microsoft, Apple and Signal, among others).

In addition to being an IACR Fellow, Dr. Dodis is the recipient of
2021 and 2019 IACR Test-of-Time Awards for his work on Fuzzy
Extractors and Verifiable Random Functions, National Science
Foundation CAREER Award, Faculty Awards from Facebook, Google, IBM
Algorand, Protocol Labs, JP Morgan, Stellar Foundation and VMware, and
Best Paper Award at 2005 Public Key Cryptography Conference. As an
undergraduate student, he was also a winner of the US-Canada Putnam
Mathematical Competition in 1995.

Dr. Dodis has more than 160 scientific publications at various top
venues, was the Program co-Chair for the 2022 CRYPTO and 2015 Theory
of Cryptography Conference, the editor of Journal of Cryptology
(2012-2019), has been on program committees of many international
conferences (including FOCS, STOC, CRYPTO and Eurocrypt), and gave
numerous invited lectures and courses at various venues.
