Clément Ducros About I am a third-year PhD student at the Institut de Recherche en Informatique Fondamentale (IRIF), Université Paris Cité, under the supervision of Geoffroy Couteau and Alain Couvreur since October 2021. My main research interests lie in general MPC questions, pseudorandomness generation, as well as the foundations of cryptography. My thesis topic is Linear Codes for Quantum-Resistant Secure Computation. More generally, my research interests span Secure Multiparty Computation, Pseudorandomness Generation, Coding Theory, and Post-Quantum Cryptography. You can find my CV here. Thesis Defense I am pleased to announce that my PhD thesis defense will take place on November 12th, 2024 at 16:00. Venue: Université Paris Cité, Halle aux Farines, Room 580F, 10 rue Françoise Dolto, 75013 Paris. The title of the Thesis is “Multi-Party Computation Based on the Computational Hardness of Coding Theory.” . More information can be found here.
