Biography
Artem Pelenitsyn is a doctoral student at the Khoury College of Computer Sciences, advised by Jan Vitek. He is interested in statically typed functional programming and languages, as well as mathematically structured programming such as recursion schemes, (e)DSLs, and type systems. Artem hopes to bring a mathematically justified construction into the world of software development.
Prior to joining Northeastern, he was an assistant professor at Southern Federal University in Russia, lecturing on computer architecture and automata theory, along with working in labs. In 2009, Artem received his graduate degree from Southern Federal University, where he analyzed and implemented error-correcting codes from algebraic geometry. During his undergraduate and graduate academic career at Southern Federal University, the faculty included the head of a large high-performance and parallel computing group, Boris Shteinberg, and a member of both Haskell 2020 Committee, Haskell Prime, and GHC Steering Committee, Vitaly Bragilevsky. Artem cites this environment as essential to the growth of his interest in programming languages and functional programming. In the future, Artem is interested in continuing in academia, specifically teaching, research, and service.
