RESEARCH PROFILE
After completing his study Applied Mathematics at the TU/e in 2011, Thijs Laarhoven started his doctoral research on the topic of cryptography and algorithms, also at the TU/e. In February 2016 he obtained his PhD (with honors) on this subject, under the supervision and guidance of prof. Tanja Lange and dr. Benne de Weger.
After finishing his PhD, he went to Switzerland to continue his research at the IBM Research laboratory near Zurich for 1.5 years. Since November 2017 he is now back at the TU/e in prof. Nikhil Bansal's group.
The best scientific research stems from curiosity.
