Dr. Valencia M. Joyner joined the Department of Electrical and
Computer Engineering at Tufts University as an Assistant Professor
in 2005. She completed the B.S. and M.Eng. degrees in electrical
engineering and computer science at MIT in 1998 and 1999,
respectively. She received a Marshall Scholarship in 1999 to pursue
a Ph.D. in electrical engineering at the University of Cambridge,
UK. Prior to joining Tufts, she held an appointment as a VLSI
Research Engineer at the University of Southern California’s
Information Sciences Institute (USC/ISI). Her research interests are
in silicon-based analog/mixed-signal integrated circuits with a
particular focus on circuits that interface with photonic devices
for high-speed communication, sensing, and biomedical imaging. Dr.
Joyner is a former Marshall Scholar, Intel Foundation Scholar and
National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow.
Graduate Students
| Ruida Yun received his B.S. in electrical
engineering and automation from Zhejiang
University, China in 2003 and a M.S. degree from
the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Sweden
in 2006. His M.S. thesis research focused on
digital calibration of pipelined ADCs for
wireless applications. He joined Prof. Joyner’s
lab in 2006 and is pursuing a Ph.D. in
electrical engineering. His doctoral research
work involves designing a multi-spectral optical
sensor for frequency-domain optical tomography
systems. |

| Yiling Zhang received
his B.E. in electrical engineering from the
Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT), China in
2006. At HIT, Yiling completed an undergraduate
research project on the design and fabrication
of silicon-based micro direct methanol fuel
cells (µDMFC). He will complete his M.S. degree
in August 2008 on the design and implementation
of hybrid-integrated CMOS optical diversity
receivers for multi-gigabit free-space optical
MIMO systems. |

completed her B.E. in electronic science and
technology at the Harbin Institute of Technology
(HIT), China in 2007. She received the Dean’s
Fellowship in 2007 to pursue a M.S. in
electrical engineering at Tufts University. Her
current research focuses on low-noise readout
circuits for MEMS sensors and high-performance
circuits for broadband wireless applications. |
