Sensen Li, Ph.D.

Sensen Li is an Assistant Professor and holds the Fellow of Silicon Laboratories Endowed Chair in Electrical Engineering in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin, where he directs the UT-Austin Circuits and Electromagnetics (UT-ACE) Lab. Previously, he was with Samsung Research America, developing the next-generation wireless communication systems. He received his B.Eng. with highest honors and B.A. from Zhejiang University, Zhejiang, China, in 2013, and the Ph.D. degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA, USA, in 2020. His research interests include RF, millimeter-wave, and terahertz integrated antenna, circuit, and system designs for wireless communication and sensing applications.

Dr. Li was a recipient of the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S) Graduate Fellowship in 2019, the Best Paper Award at the IEEE Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits Symposium (RFIC) in 2018, the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (AP-S) Doctoral Research Grant in 2018, and the Analog Devices, Inc. Outstanding Student Designer Award in 2018. He was also a co-recipient of multiple best paper awards, including the IEEE RFIC Best Student Paper Award in 2021, the IEEE International Microwave Symposium (IMS) Best Student Paper Award in 2021, and the IEEE Custom Integrated Circuits Conference (CICC) Best Paper Award in 2019.
