Patrick McCorry

PhD Scholarship available! I am moving to King's College London as an Assistant Professor (Lecturer) from September 2018 onwards. Are you interested in a cryptocurrency PhD? Let's talk.

I am a Research Associate working with Sarah Meiklejohn and I receive funding from the Glass Houses Project.

I advise a startup called Indorse.io, maintain the popular Open Vote Network Project/LocalCrypto, I'm a member of IC3 and I have conducted two security audits for RSK.

In the past, I visited Andrew Miller at UIUC and completed my PhD with Feng Hao and Siamak F. Shahandashti at Newcastle University. My thesis is online.

At heart I am an Engineer and interests include cryptocurrencies, smart contracts, cryptography and decentralised systems.
