Luiza Soezima

Hello there! Welcome to my homepage!

I am Luiza Soezima, and since December 2025 I am a PhD Student at Aarhus University, under the supervision of Diego F. Aranha and Peter Scholl.

Previously, I completed the MSc. in Computer Science at ENSIMAG (École nationale supérieure d’informatique et de mathématiques appliquées de Grenoble) - UGA (Université Grenoble Alpes) in the beautiful Grenoble , France . My M2 Research was performed at CASC(Calcul Algébrique et Symbolique, Sécurité, Systèmes Complexes, Codes et Cryptologie) team at Laboratoire Jean Kuntzmann under supervision of Jean-Guillaume Dumas and Aude Maignan, where my thesis was titled “Towards Fuzzy Private Set Union”.

I pursue a BSc. in Computer Science at Instituto de Matemática e Estatística - Universidade de São Paulo, in the huge São Paulo , Brazil (I am also from São Paulo, Brazil).

Currently my main topics of interest are Private Information Retrieval and Private Set Operations (with extensions to Fuzzy Matching).

My goals

I wish to be a role model for young female scientists from Latin America, especially from Brazil. I want to inspire, guide, and help them overcome educational challenges.

I am aware that by sharing my experiences and advocating for equitable opportunities, I will be able to amplify the voices of female scientists in LATAM region, fostering diversity, inclusion, and empowerment in the global scientific community.

A bit more about me

Besides crypto, maths and computer science, I love music. I have played classical piano since I was 5 years old and I strongly believe that music is one of the most touching expressions of the human soul.

Through my life experiences, I have learned we must value our sentimental expression and social empathy.

What makes you a distinguished mind is not constantly being great but doing the best with what you have and striving to better yourself, science and society.
