Calit2 Irvine division director GP Li.  Li, who has appointments in
electrical engineering and computer science, chemical engineering and
materials science, and biomedical engineering, also serves as director
of UCI's Integrated Nanosystems Research Facility. He has started
several companies and has a unique entrepreneurial approach to career
paths within the academic world.

 

Time:                          11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m.

Bio:                             Li, director of the UCI division of
Calit2, also holds appointments in the departments of electrical
engineering and computer science, chemical engineering and materials
science, and biomedical engineering, and directs UCI's Integrated
Nanosystems Research Facility. He also serves as chair of the executive
committee of the electronics manufacturing research and new materials
sector for UC Discovery. Li holds six U.S. patents and has published
more than 240 research papers involving microelectronic semiconductor
materials/devices/technologies, mixed signal digital/analog/microwave
microelectronic circuit designs, RF-MEMS communication systems, bio-nano
technology, and Bio-MEMS instruments for life sciences. He has also
worked in the area of silicon bipolar (0.5 um and 0.25 um) VLSI
technology and process-related device physics. He has researched optical
switches and optoelectronics for ultra-high-speed IC measurements and
led a research/development team to transfer the bipolar VLSI technology
from research to manufacturing at IBM. In 1987, he chaired the committee
for defining the IBM semiconductor technology roadmap for beyond the
year 2000. He has been a member of numerous technical committees at
professional conferences. His current research interests focus on
"LifeChips," which represent the convergence and fusion of life sciences
(including biotech and biomedical devices) and IT (including consumer,
computing, and communication) microelectronics.

 

Additional Info:           The program is free to UCI faculty,
researchers, students and staff. Reservations are requested:
