Hila Dahari-Garbian

Postdoctoral Fellow

About me

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at Reichman University, hosted by Prof. Elette Boyle, Dr. Ran Cohen, and Prof. Tal Moran. Since 2024, I have also been a cryptography researcher at SODA Labs.

My research focuses on cryptography, with particular interest in zero-knowledge proofs, secure multi-party computation, and digital signature schemes.

Previously, I completed my PhD at the Department of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics at the Weizmann Institute of Science, where I was advised by Prof. Moni Naor. During my PhD, I was also a part-time visiting student at the FACT center, and a fellow of the Ariane de Rothschild Women Doctoral Program.

I received my MSc from the Department of Computer Science at Bar-Ilan University, where I was under the guidance of Prof. Yehuda Lindell.
