Academic Genealogy
My academic lineage, tracing back through generations of scholars.
I can trace back my academic genealogy all the way to Newton, Galileo and Tartaglia thanks
to my academic uncles and grand uncles (Mark Corner, Rajesh Balan, Jason Flinn, and
Dushyanth Narayanan). I took this directly from my advisor’s website at Duke, now at
Microsoft.
