Professor Parastoo Sadeghi is a distinguished academic in the School of Engineering and Information Technology at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) Canberra, where she serves as Professor of Electrical Engineering. She joined UNSW Canberra in October 2020 after spending 15 years at the Australian National University (2005-2020). Professor Sadeghi received her bachelor's and master's degrees in electrical engineering from Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, Iran, in 1995 and 1997, respectively, and completed her Ph.D. in electrical engineering from UNSW Sydney in 2006. Professor Sadeghi's research spans several cutting-edge areas in information theory and communications, with particular emphasis on information theory , data privacy , network and index coding , wireless communications theory and systems , and spherical signal processing . Her work has resulted in over 200 refereed journal articles and conference papers, plus a book on Hilbert Space Methods in Signal Processing published by Cambridge University Press in 2013. Her recent publications demonstrate a strong focus on differential privacy mechanisms, information leakage analysis, and network coding optimization, with significant contributions to the theoretical foundations of these fields. Professor Sadeghi has held several prestigious positions in the academic community, including serving as Associate Editor for coding techniques for the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory (2016-2019), General Co-chair of the 2021 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory in Melbourne, and as an elected member on the Board of Governors of the IEEE Information Theory Society (2019-2020). She has been a Senior Member of the IEEE since 2007 and has conducted research visits at leading institutions including the Technical University of Munich (2008) and MIT (2009, 2013, 2020). Her recent work shows increasing focus on privacy-preserving technologies and the theoretical foundations of secure communications, with numerous publications in top-tier venues. Senior Member of IEEE (since 2007) General Co-chair of 2021 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Information Theory (2016-2019) Elected member, IEEE Information Theory Society Board of Governors (2019-2020) Professor Sadeghi actively supervises graduate students in fundamental problems related to information theory, wireless communications, data privacy, and network coding. She offers competitive scholarships of $35,000 AUD for high-achieving PhD students with strong mathematical backgrounds. Her research group maintains strong international collaborations, as evidenced by her frequent research visits to top global institutions and numerous co-authored publications with international researchers. She continues to be an active contributor to the advancement of information theory and its applications to modern communication and privacy challenges.
