Aditya Senthilnathan

I'm a third-year PhD student in Computer Science at Cornell University, where I work with Prof. Nate Foster. I'm broadly interested in research in Programming Languages and Systems.

Before Cornell, I was a pre-doctoral research fellow at Microsoft Research where I worked with Akash Lal and Pantazis Deligiannis on novel testing methods for industrial-scale concurrent software. Previously, I did my Bachelors and Masters in Computer Science at IIT Delhi, where I worked with Prof. Sorav Bansal on translation validation for LLVM compiler optimizations. In the summer of 2021, I interned at Columbia University with Prof. Junfeng Yang where I worked on program analysis for tracking stale package dependencies.
