Jane Gu

Q. Jane Gu is a Professor at the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech since September 2024, holding the Ed and Pat Joy Professorship. Previously, she was at the University of California, Davis (2012–2024) and the University of Florida (2010–2012). She earned her Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from UCLA in 2007.

Her research focuses on high-efficiency, low-power interconnects, millimeter-wave, sub-mm-wave, and terahertz integrated circuits and systems for applications in communication, radar, and imaging. Notable contributions include sub-THz resonator-based sensors, dielectric waveguide interconnect channels, and energy-efficient transmitters.

• Recipient of NSF CAREER Award (2013)
• 2015 UC Davis Outstanding Junior Faculty Award
• 2017 and 2018 Qualcomm Faculty Awards
• 2019 UC Davis Chancellor’s Fellow
• 2022–2023 IEEE SSCS Distinguished Lecturer

Her group has garnered nine best paper awards, including top honors at the 2016, 2017, and 2020 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposia. Research interests span terahertz interconnects, millimeter-wave radar systems, and integrated circuits for high-speed communication.

Publications reflect advancements in sensor design, high-frequency transceivers, and phased-array systems, emphasizing energy efficiency and signal integrity.
