The Center for Information Technology Research in the Interest of Society and the Banatao Institute (CITRIS) are pleased to announce that M. Saif Islam, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of California, Davis, has been named the campus director of CITRIS at UC Davis.
The use of Corsi-Rosenthal boxes and the wireless sensor system monitoring demonstrates the College of Engineering's commitment to the safety of ECE instructional labs. The pivot to increase safety in the labs could not have happened without the unique partnerships across faculty, students and industry.
Andrew Fong, Alysia Iglesias, and Jeremy Roberson have been awarded by their fellow alumni and current electrical and computer engineering (ECE) faculty and staff for the inaugural 2021 alumni awards: Rising Star Alumni, Outstanding Alumni Mentorship, and Alumni Leadership in Promoting Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
UC Davis’ student chapter of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is organizing a crowdfunding campaign through UC Davis to supply electronic equipment to low-income undergraduate ECE students.
More than 31% of all baby deliveries in the U.S. were by C-section in 2018. While some C-sections are necessary, any surgery comes with risks. Both medical professionals and insurance companies would like to be able to avoid C-sections when they are not needed.
“When I started working in this field, almost 13 years ago, the THz/mm-wave spectrum was one of the least-tapped frequency bands,” reflects UC Davis electrical and computer engineering (ECE) professor Omeed Momeni.
As a circuit and system designer Momeni finds this line of work exciting. Many innovative structures and ideas are needed to make circuits operational at that frequency range, and the potential future applications are promising.
UC Davis electrical and computer engineering (ECE) professor Marina Radulaski earned a OneQuantum award from QuEra Computing. Presented at a ceremony on December 7 at the Q2B conference in Santa Clara, the OneQuantum awards recognize “those who have made outstanding contributions to the advancement of global quantum technology.”
He will be awarded an honorary doctorate and deliver the keynote address at the undergraduate commencement of the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta on Saturday, Dec. 18.
A beloved graduate of Georgia Tech, May served there for nearly three decades before becoming UC Davis’ seventh chancellor in 2017.
Over many years of research, UC Davis electrical and computer engineering (ECE) professor Saif Islam has developed revolutionary new techniques to construct tiny and sensitive nanostructures for the massively parallel nano-manufacturing of electronics and photonics.
UC Davis electrical and computer engineering (ECE) professor Neville Luhmann and project scientist Yilun Zhu are carrying out research crucial to the operation of nuclear fusion energy. In particular, they are developing high-speed cameras capable of millimeter-wave imaging.
