News

  • I will be teaching DD2442 Seminars on Theoretical Computer Science (7.5 ECTS credits) during the autumn of 2014. (The course webpage is not up yet for various reasons, but please feel free to drop me a line if you have any questions about the course.)
  • I am the coordinating organizer for the workshop Theory and Practice of SAT Solving at Schloss Dagstuhl – Leibniz Center for Informatics in April 2015.

Professional activities

I am an Assistant Professor in the Theoretical Computer Science Group at the School of Computer Science and Communication (CSC) at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden.

During the academic years 2008-09 and 2009-10, I was a postdoc at the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology hosted by Madhu Sudan.

Prior to that I was a PhD student of Johan Håstad in the Theory Group at KTH CSC, where I defended my PhD thesis in May 2008. For those who would prefer not to read the whole thesis there are instead [in Swedish only] a short popular science summary and a slightly longer popular science overview of my research.

During my doctoral studies at KTH, apart from doing some teaching I was also the President of the Postgraduate Students' Council (doktorandrådet) at KTH CSC and the postgraduate student representative in the School Board (skolstyrelsen) and the Executive Group (ledningsgruppen) of KTH CSC. I also organized the informal PhD student seminars in Theoretical Computer Science.
