Shimeng Yu is a full professor of electrical and computer engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology, where he holds the Dean’s Professorship. He received the B.S. degree in microelectronics from Peking University in 2009, and the M.S. degree and Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from Stanford University in 2011 and 2013, respectively. From 2013 to 2018, he was an assistant professor at Arizona State University. He is elevated for the IEEE Fellow for contributions to non-volatile memories and in-memory computing.

Prof. Yu’s general research interests are semiconductor devices and integrated circuits for energy-efficient computing systems. His expertise is on the emerging non-volatile memories for AI hardware and 3D integration. Among Prof. Yu’s honors, he was a recipient of National Science Foundation (NSF) CAREER Award in 2016, IEEE Electron Devices Society (EDS) Early Career Award in 2017, ACM Special Interests Group on Design Automation (SIGDA) Outstanding New Faculty Award in 2018, Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC) Inaugural Young Faculty Award in 2019, IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (CASS) Distinguished Lecturer in 2021, IEEE Electron Devices Society (EDS) Distinguished Lecturer in 2022, and Intel Outstanding Researcher Award 2023, etc. Prof. Yu’s 400+ journal/conference publications received more than 28,000 citations (Google Scholar) with H-index 82. He is the theme lead of two SRC/DARPA JUMP 2.0 centers on intelligent memory/storage and heterogeneous/monolithic 3D integration.

Prof. Yu serves flagship conferences in the field as technical program committee, including IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM), IEEE Symposium on VLSI Technology and Circuits, IEEE International Reliability Physics Symposium (IRPS), ACM/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC), ACM/IEEE Design, Automation & Test in Europe (DATE), ACM/IEEE International Conference on Computer-Aided-Design (ICCAD), etc. He also serves an editor for IEEE Electron Device Letters (EDL), and associate editor-in-chief for IEEE Journal on Emerging and Selected Topics in Circuits and Systems (JETCAS).
