Dr. Oliver Bračevac
Programming Languages Research Engineer @ Galois, Inc.
Former Postdoc @ Purdue CS and PurPL.

[Research Statement] [Teaching Statement]
My general interests are programming languages and compilers. I explore new ways of programming complex systems, in order to make them simpler, safer, more robust, and more scalable.
I am a strong proponent of functional programming and formal methods, and a logician at heart.
