Pierre-Louis Roman

Hi! I am a research engineer at Chainbound, an R&D team specialized in high-performance networking for blockchains. My research is focused on the security and efficiency of blockchains from a distributed systems perspective.

I was previously a postdoctoral researcher at EPFL working on scalable cryptocurrency systems and at USI Lugano working on secure and efficient data center systems. I completed my PhD on decentralized systems in 2018 supervised by François Taïani and Davide Frey at the University of Rennes - Inria - IRISA. I received an MSc in 2013 and a BSc in 2011 both in computer science from Sorbonne University.

Interests: Blockchains, Distributed systems, Operating systems, Security.
