Fairblock, a company co-founded by Cheriton School of Computer Science master’s graduate Peyman Momeni, has secured $2.5 million to build infrastructure to bring conditional encryption and pre-execution privacy to blockchains. 

The recent funding round was led by Galileo Ventures and supported by a consortium of investment firms that include Lemniscap, Dialectic, Robot Ventures, GSR, Chorus One, Dorahacks, and Reverie, as well as several angel investors.

Earlier this year, Cheriton School of Computer Science Professor Craig S. Kaplan and his international colleagues David Smith, Joseph Myers and Chaim Goodman-Strauss discovered a single shape, which they called the hat, that tiles the plane — an infinite, two-dimensional surface — in a pattern that can never be made to repeat. 

Glycoproteins are a diverse class of molecules in which one or more sugar molecules — what are known as glycans — are attached to protein molecules. More than half of all proteins in human cells are thought to be glycoproteins.

For David Khazzam, one of the great joys of university was getting to do a little bit of everything.

David is this year’s recipient of the Faculty of Mathematics K. D. Fryer Gold Medal, an honour given to a student who exemplifies academic excellence, good citizenship, and involvement in extracurricular activities. He graduates this Friday with a Bachelor of Computer Science degree.
