Nada is a member of the Scala team at EPFL, where she studies type systems and hacks on programming languages. She has contributed to Clojure's core.logic and Google's Closure compiler. She's loved helping others learn to program ever since tutoring SICP as an undergraduate lab assistant at MIT.

The DOT (Dependent Object Types) calculus attempts to ground Scala's type system in fewer, but powerful, constructs. In this talk I will describe what these constructs are, and how they relate to Scala's current type system. I will also show how DOT simplifies type inference. Finally, I will touch upon the challenges in the meta-theory.
