Professor Margaret Martonosi, co-chair of the Computing Research Association's Committee on the Status of Women (CRA-W), organized a statement on diversity at the MICRO-50 Conference.

Congratulations to Ph.D. student Nora Willett who received the Best Paper award for her work Triggering Artwork Swaps for Live Animation at the ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology (UIST).

Yoram Singer, a senior Google research scientist, will join the Computer Science Department this fall as a full professor, deepening the department’s expertise and research in machine learning, perception and related areas. Two new assistant professors — Olga Russakovsky and Wyatt Lloyd — will extend the department’s knowledge and skills in visual artificial intelligence and distributed systems.

Arvind Narayanan stands at the crossroads of technology and the public interest. You might call him a policeman, but he’d probably prefer to be considered a detective or maybe an auditor in the complex, fast-changing, and often fragile relationship between computers and people.

Princeton professors Edward Felten and Alan Krueger will serve on a new task force aimed at transforming America’s labor market to a 21st century, skills-driven model.

More than 40,000 Americans die each year from this devastating disease, making it the third deadliest cancer nationwide. Most patients do not show signs of the illness until their cancers have spread elsewhere in the body, and even when caught early, pancreatic cancers do not respond well to treatment.

Now, technology developed by Princeton University computer scientists may do for audio recordings of the human voice what word processing software did for the written word.

A system developed by Princeton researchers that allows users to better secure the encryption of their electronic communications, rather than trust their providers to do so, has been recognized with a top prize at this year’s Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium.

Two teams of Princeton graduate students are making strong showings in national robotics competitions this year. The teams are combining advances in computation with those in sensing technology.

A TEAM OF PRINCETON RESEARCHERS HAS DEVELOPED A METHOD TO DETECT AND DEFEND AGAINST ATTACKS ON THE TOR SYSTEM, WHICH PROVIDES ANONYMITY TO INTERNET USERS.

Congratulations to the Computer Science Department Class of 2017!
