My research interests lie broadly in information theory and communication systems, with a particular focus on the fundamental limits of communication, security, and privacy in multi-user networks. My research spans wireless and optical communications and distributed communication systems. More broadly, I am interested in developing information-theoretic foundations for next-generation communication, sensing, and learning systems.
