My co-authors Grant Iraci and Cheng-En Chuang won a prize in the Russell L. Agrusa Student Innovation Competition at the University at Buffalo for our work on rate-based session types. I am co-chair of the PLACES '24 workshop (part of ETAPS '24) with Diana Costa. Please consider submitting and attending! Our software artifact for our paper at OOPSLA 2023 won the OOPSLA Distinguished Artifact award. I was a discussion panel member at the ST30 "30 Years of Session Types" workshop at SPLASH 2023. I received a "Best early-career educator" award (2023) from the School of EECS at QMUL. Our paper on event-driven multiparty session actors is accepted at HOPE 23. Our paper on rate-safe session types for embedded systems and IoT is accepted at OOPSLA 2023. I gave an invited talk at the Stardust Project meeting (Sep 2022). I gave an invited seminar at the University of Kent about our work on session types for fault-tolerant event-driven programming (Dec 2021). I participated in the Dagstuhl Seminar "Behavioural Types: Bridging Theory and Practice". Our paper on session types for fault-tolerant event-driven programming is accepted at OOPSLA 2021.
