We are hiring!

9 November 2023

We are looking for a PhD student in computer science on the topic of biometric template protection.The aim is to develop new algorithms to improve privacy protection in biometric recognition systems based on the state of the art in both biometric recognition (e.g. deep learning architectures) and modern cryptography (post-quantum cryptography, differential learning). For more details, please check the full description.

Have we attracted your interest?
Then send your application with the usual documents (cover letter, CV, references, certificates) by 12.10.2023 in PDF form by e-mail with the subject: "Application Privacy-Biometrics" to: Prof. Dr. Marta Gomez-Barrero (marta.gomez-barrero@unibw.de)
