I can be most easily reached by email at yuri[at]takhteyev[dot]org.

I welcome most types of inquiries, except for calls from IT recruiters offering programming jobs. (If you are looking for Lua programmers, feel free to write - I might forward your message to someone.) Feel free to write in English, Portuguese or Russian.

If you are considering applying for a Ph.D. program at the U of T's Faculty of Information or at the UC Berkeley School of Information, I will be most happy to answer your questions about the program, but please keep in mind that better questions get better answers. In particular, consider attaching a draft of your research statement.
