Hi! I'm Maryam Negahbani,

a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at Dartmouth College under supervision of Prof. Deeparnab Chakrabarty. My research interest is broadly Approximation Algorithms and Combinatorial Optimization. Currently my focus is on Clustering Algorithms: Improving approximation ratios, proving hardness of approximation, fairness and other generalizations.

I got my B.Sc. from University of Isfahan, Iran and my M.Sc. from Sharif University of Technology, Iran. I've interned at Google Research last Summer. Here is my resume:
