Arantxa Zapico

I am a cryptography researcher at the Ethereum Foundation.

I obtained my Ph.D. from Pompeu Fabra University in October 2022, under the supervision of Carla Ràfols and Vanesa Daza. You can access my dissertation, Algebraic Techniques for Universal Succinct Arguments, here.

From January to April 2022, I was a research intern at the Ethereum Foundation, where I worked with Mary Maller.

The first three years of my Ph.D. had been funded by a Marie Sklodowska-Curie + INPhINIT scholarship from La Caixa Foundation and the European Union, while the last one was supported by a fellowship from Protocol Labs.

In 2017 I finished my Licensee in Mathematics (BSc+MSc equivalent) at the National (public and free) University of Córdoba, Argentina. I am a fundamentalist of the fact that education, at every level, must be accessible to all.

In 2015 I studied for a semester at the University of Stirling, Scotland. Also, between my undergrad and Ph.D. I spent a year working mainly in hospitality in Australia.

My first language is Spanish, and I also speak English and Catalan.
