Name:Kia Rahmani

Bio:

I am a PhD candidate of computer science at Purdue University. I am a member of the programming languages group, working under the supervision of Professor Suresh Jagannathan and Professor Benjamin Delaware.

My PhD thesis is focused around compilation, synthesis, and testing of modern database-backed programs. More broadly, I am interested in all formal methods for modeling and analysis of (classical or quantum) computer programs.

I was previously a research intern at Microsoft, working on a new program synthesis technique based on pre-trained language models. My work was supervised by Dr. Mohammad Raza and Dr. Sumit Gulwani.
