Biography
My name is Junhao Huang. I am currently a postdoc fellow at Singapore Management University, working with Prof. Haiyang Xue. Previous to that, I was a postdoc researcher at City University of Hong Kong, under the guidance of Prof. Ray. C.C. Cheung. My research interest lies in cryptographic engineering, focusing on efficient implementation of Post-quantum Cryptography or Lattice-based Cryptography (LBC).
