معرفی
Dr. Stephanie Balzer is an Assistant Professor in the Principles of Programming Group at Carnegie Mellon University's School of Computer Science. Her research focuses on enabling failure-free software through formal methods like type systems and verification logics. She emphasizes compositional proofs for scalability and practical validation via software artifacts.
- Programming Languages
- Type Theory
- Program Verification
- Concurrency & Security
Her recent work explores timed protocols, disentanglement logic, and multiparty session types. Articles demonstrate semantic logical relations for termination (2025), deadlock freedom in Rust embeddings (2022), and information flow control (2024). Key collaborative papers address cyclic process networks and separation logic frameworks.
Scientific recognition includes:
- NSF CAREER Award (2025)
- ACM SIGPLAN Distinguished Paper (2022)
- ECOOP Distinguished Paper (2022)
She supervises PhD candidates Yue Yao, Yinsen Zhang, and Zak Kent (with Guy Blelloch), plus Master's student Sonya Simkin. Former advisee Jules Jacobs received Cum Laude distinction at Radboud University.
Active in academic service, Balzer chairs PLMW@POPL workshops and co-organizes Oregon Programming Language Summer School. She serves on program committees for LICS, POPL, and ICFP.
