In this episode, we discuss how Yael started working in the field, choosing foundational research problems, privacy-preserving tools such as ring-signatures used in cryptocurrencies (Monero) and recent breakthroughs in schemes that allow hiding secrets in program code.

Did you know that ring-signatures came from the motivation to understand the Fiat-Shamir paradigms?

Who will get the credit for the recent breakthroughs in program obfuscation?
Did you know the history of the famous IP = PSPACE result?
Listen to the podcast to learn the answers.
Quotes from the show:
“I won’t be happy with myself if my work is buried and not applied anywhere”, “The world brings problems to you”.
