<h2>Research</h2> <p> <strong>Interests:</strong> Distributed systems, computer science education </p> <h2>Short Bio</h2> <p>Christopher Moretti is a lecturer in computer science at Princeton University. Prior to coming to Princeton in 2010, he earned his doctorate in computer science and engineering from the University of Notre Dame. At Princeton he has taught and developed for the CS I course (COS126), the systems-track CS II course (COS217), the functional programming course (COS326), and the project-based software engineering course (COS333). He has also served as an academic advisor for engineering freshman and upperclass computer science majors. His research interests focus on distributed computing and storage, and computer science education. He has directed junior and senior independent work research projects in these areas, as well as sports analytics, programming tools, and software engineering.</p> <p> </p> <h2> Selected Publications </h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=3017798">Teaching CS to CS Teachers: Addressing the Need for Advanced Content in K-12 Professional Development</a><br> D.
