Name:Andreas Nuyts

Bio:

I am a postdoctoral fellow of the Research Foundation - Flanders (FWO) at imec-DistriNet, KU Leuven, Belgium. I obtained my PhD at this same university in August 2020, and have subsequently worked for 1 year at VUB.

Most of my research is about dependent type theory. There, I am interested in the theory and implementation of modal and presheaf type theory (particularly directed type theory), a quest which also led me to an interest in general syntactic aspects of type theory. I am also fascinated by the question of how to reason about side-effects in dependent type theory. Furthermore, I have been involved in a line of research on categorifying secure compilation.
