Micah Sherr is the Callahan Family Professor of Computer Science in the Computer Science Department at Georgetown University. His academic interests include censorship and censorship-resistance, electronic voting, wiretap systems, and more broadly, privacy-preserving technologies. He participated in two large-scale studies of electronic voting machine systems, and helped to disclose architectural vulnerabilities in deployed U.S. election systems. His current research examines the methods used by many nation-states to restrict access to information online, and investigates new censorship-resistance technologies aimed at evading them. Micah received his B.S.E., M.S.E., and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Pennsylvania. He is a recipient of the NSF CAREER award, and currently serves as co-editor-in-chief of the Proceedings on Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PoPETs) and associate chair of the IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy.
