Break Time Round Table Discussion

Tuesday, September 14 at 9:30 to 10:15 pm (China Standard Time) / 9:30 to 10:15 am (Eastern Time)

The IEEE UFFC-S Industry Engagement Committee invites you to a break time discussion: The Virtual Round Tables event at IEEE IUS 2021!

 We prepared two topics for you and invited renowned hosts and speakers to lead the discussions:

  • CMUTs from research to product – Challenges and opportunities
  • GPU/TPU based computing in Ultrasound
Lin

David Lin, Principal Scientist at GE

Dr. David Lin, is a Principal Engineer of Microsystems at GE Research. His work focuses on MEMS sensor design, microsystems integration and reliability. David is passionate about bridging over the gap between MEMS research and productization. During his 20-year industrial career in MEMS research and development, he has successfully led multiple MEMS programs from novel concept generation into high volume production. David is also a principal investigator or a lead contributor to multiple research projects funded by US government, including IARPA, DARPA, SEMI_ARL and DOE. David holds 45 issued US patents.
