Biography

Teresa H. Meng is the Reid Weaver Dennis Professor of Electrical Engineering and Professor Emerita of Computer Science at Stanford University. With over 10 years of research focused on low-power circuit system design, video signal processing, and wireless communications, Prof. Meng has significantly impacted the field. In 1998, she took a leave from Stanford to found Atheros Communications, Inc., where she developed semiconductor system solutions for wireless network communications products. Upon her return to Stanford in 2000, she shifted her research focus towards applying signal processing in integrated circuit design for biomedical engineering, collaborating with Prof. Krishna Shenoy on neural signal processing for neural prosthetic systems. She directed a research group investigating wireless power transfer for implantable biomedical devices until her retirement in 2013.
