We will highlight recent advances in local algorithms that enable black-box differentially private queries to sensitive datasets. We will also discuss distributed models of privacy, where each individual perturbs their own data locally\u2014without trusting any centralized curator\u2014so that the final output guarantees privacy even if the central server is compromised. I will sprinkle the talk with pieces of advice I found useful\u2013and some that I learned to ignore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bio:<\/strong> <strong>Sofya&nbsp;Raskhodnikova<\/strong>&nbsp;is a Professor of Computer Science at Boston University.
