Prof.
 Gui is currently a Cecil H. Green Full Professor of Electrical Engineering and 
is the founder and director of the Integrated Circuits and Systems Lab 
at Lyle School of SMU. Her primary research interests are analog, 
mixed-signal, RF/mmwave, and digital IC for a variety of applications, 
including high-speed wireless and wireline communications using mmwave, 
low-power biomedical circuits, mmwave automotive RADARs, high-speed 
ADC/DACs, circuits and systems for extreme and harsh environments, and 
hardware security. Prof. Gui is a senior member of IEEE, and a recipient
 of CERN Scientific Associate Award (2008-2011),IEEE Outstanding Service
 Award (2011), and the SMU Gerald J. Ford Research Fellowship 
Award(2015). Prof. Gui has served as a Technical Program Committee member of various international conferences including IEEE CICC, IEEE RFIC and IEEE ISSCC.
