Five scholars from four universities participated in a pilot research program for rising juniors, run jointly by leaders at Intel Corporation and Princeton Engineering. Over eight weeks, organizers introduced scholars to field-leading research problems in computer security and privacy and led talks on how to navigate a career in research.

Andrés Monroy-Hernández, who joined Princeton this fall as an assistant professor of computer science, explores the potential of computing to connect communities, build skills and promote equity.

On Oct. 6, the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation held a hearing to discuss consumer privacy and data security.

The Siebel Scholars Foundation has announced the recipients of the 2022 Siebel Scholars award. Now in its 21st year, the Siebel Scholars program annually recognizes nearly 100 exceptional students from the world’s leading graduate schools of business, computer science, and bioengineering. The awardees include five Princeton University graduate students in computer science, Xiaoqi Chen, Huihan Li, Nikunj Saunshi, Jiaqi Su, and Kaiyu Yang.

To probe the origin and spread of cancers in the human body more effectively, Ben Raphael, professor of computer science at Princeton University, and his research lab created HATCHet or Holistic Allele-specific Tumor Copy-number Heterogeneity, an algorithm that is capable of finding and analyzing genes that have been duplicated or deleted in multiple tumor samples from a single cancer patient.

Three CS Undergraduate students were awarded prizes at the University’s formal Opening Exercises, which took place in the University Chapel on Sunday, August 29, 2021.

Michael Freedman has been named the Robert E. Kahn Professor of Computer Science, established by a gift of Robert E. Kahn, who earned a Ph.D. from Princeton in 1964 and is widely known as a “father of the internet.”

Senior lecturer Kevin Wayne’s promotion to the newly created position of university lecturer this summer represented not only a career achievement for the Computer Science Department veteran but also well-deserved recognition of the teaching faculty’s critical role in undergraduate education.

A team at Princeton University, led by professor Jonathan Mayer, is working to solve this problem. Together with Mozilla — creator of the Firefox web browser — Mayer’s team has developed a novel research initiative for studying technology policy issues.

In a recent study, Princeton researchers described how people are prone to distort spatial information based on their shared expectations about a scene. The researchers studied multiple observers' recollections of the location of dots on computer screens. image provided by Griffiths et al

Olga Russakovsky, an assistant professor of computer science is a forward-thinking expert in computer vision systems. In this video short in the “Forward Thinkers” series, Russokovsky acknowledges the amazing breakthroughs in computer vision that have powered important applications in areas such as disaster relief, autonomous transportation, or medical diagnostics. She also voices concern for the potential for bias within these systems and speaks about her vision for “AI for All,” and her work in identifying a more diverse generation to work on artificial intelligence systems.

The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the IEEE Computer Society (CS) have awarded Margaret Martonosi, Hugh Trumbull Adams '35 Professor of Computer Science at Princeton University, the 2021 Eckert-Mauchly Award for her contributions to the design, modeling, and verification of power-efficient computer architecture.
