# EPF - Update 4

It was a good week. Had a chance to fly out to Brussels and attend the EPF day and ETH cc in person.

It was lovely meeting all the fellows along with Mario and Josh. After the project presentations we also had a session from Dankrad Feist about the ethereum roadmap which was very enlightning.

At the end of EPF day, I along with the other fellows and Dankard had deep chats about quantum physics and academic research. All in all it was a good day.

## Presentation

I gave a presentation on Improving Finality Times and mitigating reorg and MEV related attack vectors. My proposal will be about the analysis of various architectures to acheive SSF and the pros and cons of each.
