Gina Adam joined the ECE department at GWU in November 2018 as assistant professor. Her group comprising of 5 PhD students and 3 undergraduates works on the development of novel hardware foundations that will enable new ways of computing. She received her Ph.D. in electrical and computer engineering from the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2015 and was a research scientist at the Romanian National Institute for Research and Development in Microtechnologies and a visiting scholar at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne before joining GWU. She was the recipient of an International Fulbright Science and Technology award in 2010, a Mirzayan fellowship at the National Academy of Engineering in 2012 and of a H2020 Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant from the European Commission in 2016-2018. She is the recipient of an NSF CRII grant for junior faculty for 2020 - 2022 for her work on memristive-based neural networks for biosignal processing. She has been collaborating with the National Institute for Science and Technology (NIST) and Western Digital Research, leading a project funded by ONR / DARPA in developing memory-efficient hardware for training neural networks.
