Andrés Molina-Markham

ISTS Postdoctoral Fellow
Dartmouth College, Department of Computer Science

Andrés Molina-Markham is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute for Security, Technology, and Society. His current research interests include security and privacy aspects of mobile health applications.

Andrés received his PhD from the University of Massachusetts Amherst.  His dissertation addressed the problem of obtaining useful information about a population using data gathered by resource-constrained embedded devices and combining it in a privacy-aware manner.  Prior to entering the PhD program, he worked for two years as a data analyst in the Section of Biomedical Image Analysis at the University of Pennsylvania. Andrés received a master's in Mathematics and a master's in Computer Science from the University of Pennsylvania. His master's thesis in Computer Science studied the practical exploitation of loosely coupled covert timing channels.
