SUMMARY:IEEE SSCS Women in Circuits (WiC) and Women in EDS Networking Luncheon @ VLSI 2026
DESCRIPTION:Join the IEEE Solid‑State Circuits Society Women in Circuits (WiC) and Women in EDS for a networking luncheon open to all VLSI attendees. \n\n\n\n\nThe event will feature brief\, thought‑provoking remarks from SSCS and EDS representatives\, followed by informal discussion and networking. Designed for attendees at all career stages\, this session offers a relaxed setting to exchange perspectives on technical careers\, leadership\, and experiences beyond the classroom. Enjoy lunch\, connect with peers across academia and industry\, and continue the conversation sparked by the conference. \nLocation:  Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort 2005 Kālia Road Honolulu\, HI 96815 \nRoom: Lehua Suite in Kahili Tower \nSpace is limited\, and early registration is highly recommended. \n\nPurchase tickets here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ieee-sscs-women-in-circuits-wic-and-women-in-eds-networking-luncheon-tickets-1987328030637?aff=oddtdtcreator \n\nGuest Speakers –\nDr. Farhana Sheikh\n\n\n\n\nDr. Farhana Sheikh is a Principal Engineer and Manager at Intel Corporation\, in Intel Government Technologies. She was elevated to IEEE Fellow in January 2026 for her contributions to 2D/3D heterogeneous integration and digital signal processing. Prior to September 2025\, she was co-leading Altera’s Technology Pathfinding organization. She has over 20 years of experience in ASIC and DSP/communications research relating to adaptive DSP\, cryptography\, graphics\, quantum wireless control\, and 5G+ wireless. Farhana’s research focuses on 2-D and 3-D heterogeneous integration\, including chiplet integration research\, with an emphasis on die-to-die interfaces and 3D heterogeneous integration for next-generation wireless/sensing applications. Prior to joining Intel PSG/Altera\, Farhana spent over 10 years as part of Intel Labs\, leading multiple research programs in the area of adaptive DSP\, intelligent computing\, quantum computing\, control circuits\, and advanced wireless circuits and systems. Farhana has published over 50 papers\, filed over 22 patents\, and initiated the AIB-3D open-source specification for 3D chiplet heterogeneous integration\, which was later used as the basis for the UCIe-3D PHY standard published in August 2024. Outside of Intel\, she volunteers for IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society (SSCS)\, where she is the Vice President of Membership and was Chair/Co-Chair of IEEE SSCS Women in Circuits from 2022 – 2025. Farhana is a co-recipient of the 2020\, 2019\, and 2012 IEEE ISSCC Outstanding Paper Awards\, and the 2023 CICC Best Paper Award. In 2021\, Farhana was recognized for her mentorship work with students and faculty by the Semiconductor Research Corporation (SRC)\, which awarded her the 2021 Mahboob Khan Outstanding Industry Liaison Award. She was an IEEE SSCS Member-at-Large for 2022-2024 and an IEEE SSCS Distinguished Lecturer for 2023-2024. She is presently a distinguished lecturer for IEEE Women in Engineering. Farhana completed her M.Sc. and Ph.D. at the University of California\, Berkeley in 1996 and 2008\, respectively. \n  \n\nDr. Yue Liang\n\n\n\nDr. Yue Liang is a Distinguished Engineer of Advanced Technology Group at NVIDIA Corporation. Throughout her career\, she has held a range of leadership roles in the semiconductor industry. Dr. Liang is currently responsible for silicon technology development and foundry management\, including semiconductor processes\, devices\, reliability\, design methodologies\, and test-chip and technology-driver product bring-up. Prior to Nvidia\, she was at the IBM Semiconductor R&D center. Dr. Liang has been an active committee member of the IEEE Symposium on VLSI Technology and Circuits since 2017. She holds over 25 issued patents\, has authored numerous journal papers\, and delivered multiple invited talks at international conferences. Dr. Liang received her Ph.D. and M.S. degrees from Stanford University and her B.S. degree from Tsinghua University.
