+ Hi, I’m
+ <a href="images/bandali-with-rms.jpg"
+ title="photo of bandali with rms wearing a “pay cash don’t be tracked” pin">Amin Bandali</a>.
+ I’m a graduate student at <a href="https://watform.uwaterloo.ca">WatForm</a>
+ at University of Waterloo, supervised by
+ <a href="https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/~nday/">Dr. Nancy Day</a>.
+ The main goal of my research is improving
+ <strong>software and systems reliability</strong>
+ through application of <em>formal methods</em>.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ My research at WatForm focuses on formal logic, model
+ checking, and verification. I’m also interested in
+ programming languages, theorem provers, and their type
+ systems. You may wish to view my
+ academic <a href="bandali-cv.html">curriculum vitae</a>.
