Biography
Wei Zhang has recently joined School of Computer Engineering at Nanyang Technological University as an assistant professor. Wei received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Harbin Institute of Technology, China, where she was ranked No. 1 in the honor school for four consecutive years. She got her PhD in the Electrical Engineering Department at Princeton University in November 2009 under the supervision of Prof. Niraj K. Jha. Her thesis focuses on nanoelectronic dynamic reconfigurable architecture design and design automation.

Wei won the prestigious Wu Prize for research excellence at Princeton University. She has published many papers in top conferences and journals. She received a Best Paper Honorable Mention Award. She served as reviewers for several journals and conferences, such as TVLSI, DATE, ASPDAC, ISQED, ISCA, etc.
