I'm an Assistant Professor in Halıcıoğlu Data Science Institute (HDSI) and Department of Computer Science and Engineering (affiliate) at UC San Diego.
Our lab, Data Smith Lab, studies the security and privacy of data systems by researching the people who design, implement, and use these systems.
We take an interdisciplinary approach to address security and privacy problems, drawing on ideas and methods from Human-Computer Interaction, Software Engineering, AI, Mobile Computing, Programming Language, and Cyber-physical Systems.
I am taking on new PhD students and interns. See more details here.
