Bio

Leonhard Balduf got his B.Sc. in Munich in 2016. His thesis on distributing computational tasks for stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (STORM) was written while visiting the Bewersdorf Lab at Yale University.

He did his M.Sc. in computer science at HU Berlin and finished in 2021, having spent multiple semesters abroad, in the USA, Russia, and South Korea.

Leonhard Balduf is now a researcher at the Technical University of Darmstadt and the Weizenbaum Institute, in a research group focused on trust in distributed environments.

Research Interests

His research interests are focused on peer-to-peer and decentralized systems and many problems of efficient solutions in computer science.

The years 2021 and 2022 were mostly filled with research on the Interplanetary Filesystem (IPFS).
