Faculty
Haitong Li is an Assistant Professor in the Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University. He obtained his Ph.D. and M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University advised by Prof. H.-S. Philip Wong. He was a visiting researcher with Silicon Research Group at Meta Reality Labs. His research interests are in the new memory device technologies, circuit designs, and 3D integration for energy-efficient computing towards ubiquitous machine intelligence. He has published over 60 papers broadly across the technology stack (IEDM, VLSI, ISSCC, JSSC, DAC, ISCA, Nature Electronics) with over 4100 citations and an h-index of 27. His work was featured as part of the “New Compute Trajectories for Energy-Efficient Computing” in SRC’s pivotal roadmap, “The Decadal Plan for Semiconductors”. He was an invited participant in the 2025 Japan-America Frontiers of Engineering Symposium co-organized by the U.S. National Academy of Engineering.
