Since then has been leading the Laboratory for Automated Reasoning and Analysis and supervised at least 12 completed PhD theses. His works on languages, algorithms and systems for verification and automated reasoning. He served as an initiator and one of the coordinators of a European network (COST action) in the area of automated reasoning, verification, and synthesis. In 2012 he received a 5-year single-investigator European Research Council (ERC) grant of 1.5M EUR. His invited talks include those at Lambda Days, Scala Days, NFM, LOPSTR, SYNT, ICALP, CSL, RV, VMCAI, and SMT. A paper on test generation he co-authored received an ACM SIGSOFT distinguished paper award at ICSE. A PLDI paper he co-authored was published in the Communications of the ACM as a Research Highlight article. His Google Scholar profile reports an over-approximate H-index of 38. He was an associate editor of ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems (TOPLAS) and served as a co-chair of conferences on Computer-Aided Verification (CAV), Formal Methods in Computer Aided Design (FMCAD), Workshop on Synthesis (SYNT), and Verification, Model Checking, and Abstract Interpretation (VMCAI). At EPFL he teaches courses on functional and parallel programming, compilers, and verification. He has co-taught the MOOC "Parallel Programming" that was visited by over 100'000 learners and completed by thousands of students from all over the world.
Johannes HentschelAvant de commencer son doctorat à l'École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Johannes Hentschel a étudié pédagogie de musique, théorie de musique et français à Fribourg-en-Brisgau, Lübeck et Helsinki. Accordéoniste, chanteur et chef de chorale diplômé, il est avant tout maître de conférences en théorie de musique. Depuis 2018, il poursuit des études doctorales d'Humanités Digitales à l'EPFL. Sous la direction du professeur Martin Rohrmeier au sein du Digital and Cognitive Musicology Lab (DCML) Johannes prépare sa thèse sur les changements diachroniques de styles musicaux, approfondissant ses connaissances dans la construction de corpus et l'organisation de métadonnées.
