Pascal Hennen
Personal Information
Hello there, my name is Pascal and I am a fairly new PhD student here at MPI. My research interests lie in the overall routing environment of the Internet (namely BGP) and how policies influence routing decisions. I further might have gotten my hands dirty with some web scraping... but enough of that.
For my free time, you could ask any other PhD student of ours and they will immediately tell you: bouldering. Although that's not completely true, I like climbing as well. And as you might expect of a computer scientist, I am used to spend way too much time in front of a monitor as well.
