Benjamin L. Edelman is a Ph.D. student in computer science at Harvard University. He is advised by Leslie Valiant. His research interests include computational complexity, learning theory, and game theory. While an undergraduate at Princeton University, he did algebraic complexity research with Zeev Dvir and Ran Raz. His interest in theoretical computer science can be traced to PACT, a high school summer program run by the extraordinary Rajiv Gandhi.
