RESUME

Yumin Lu received a B.Sc. degree in materials science and engineering from Fudan University, Shanghai, China, in 1996, a M.Sc. degree in materials science and engineering from the Ohio State University, Columbus, in 2001, and then a Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from The University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, in 2005. Dr. Lu is currently a professor at Shanghai Institute of Microsystem and Information Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. He also serves as SITRI’s VP of RF technology, focusing on the development of high performance RF front end components and mmWave ICs. Before Joining SIMIT/SITRI, he worked for NXP Semiconductors, Autoliv Electronics and M/A-COM Inc. in the US.
