Eric Pop is the Pease-Ye Professor of Electrical Engineering (EE) and, by courtesy, of Materials Science & Engineering and of Applied Physics at Stanford, where he also leads the SystemX Heterogeneous Integration focus area. Before Stanford, he spent several years on the faculty of UIUC, and in industry at Intel and IBM. His research interests include semiconductors, nanoelectronics, data storage, and energy. He received his PhD in EE from Stanford (2005) and three degrees from MIT (MEng and BS in EE, BS in Physics). His honors include the Intel Outstanding Researcher Award, the PECASE from the White House (the highest honor given by the US government to early-career scientists and engineers), Young Investigator Awards from the Navy, Air Force, NSF CAREER, DARPA, and several best-paper awards with his students. He is an APS and IEEE Fellow, a Clarivate Highly Cited Researcher, he was Chair of the IEEE Device Research Conference (DRC) and IEEE Non-Volatile Memory Technology Symposium (NVMTS), and he has also served on program committees of the IEDM, VLSI, MRS, and APS conferences. In his spare time he tries to avoid injuries while snowboarding and playing tennis, and in a past life he was a college radio DJ at KZSU 90.1.
