Hi! I am Mugdha Khedkar. I am a PhD student advised by Prof. Dr. Eric Bodden. I work as a Research Assistant in the Secure Software Engineering group at Paderborn University, Germany.

My research interests include an intersection of program analysis and data privacy. Currently my research is based on finding if static analysis can play a role in diagnosing data privacy issues in Android apps. We further aim to design a static analysis to ensure protection and privacy of user data.

We are looking for Android developers who can take this short survey and help us with our research: https://umfragen.uni-paderborn.de/index.php/785133?lang=en
