[OUTSTANDING ROLE MODELS] ASSOC. PROF. LÊ ĐỨC HÙNG: ADVANCING NEUROLOGICAL TREATMENT THROUGH CHIP RESEARCH

Assoc. Prof. Lê Đức Hùng is a distinguished lecturer with notable achievements in both teaching and research. His impressive record includes 31 publications in prestigious national and international journals, as well as 61 papers presented at international conferences and 14 at national conferences. He has also authored two influential textbooks and one open-source translation. Furthermore, his guidance has led students to notable successes, including first place in the Eureka 2017 competition in the Engineering category and the 2023 Microchip Design for Smart City HCMC competition.

Assoc. Prof. Lê Đức Hùng, a distinguished lecturer, made significant contributions to both teaching and research, having published 31 papers in prestigious journals and mentored award-winning students. He chose to dedicate himself to the Faculty of Electronics and Telecommunications, University of Science, Viet Nam National University Ho Chi Minh City, where he honed his focus on Semiconductor Microchip Design, Biomedical Electronics, and Neuromorphic Computing.

His early career was marked by challenges, including finding a clear research direction and dealing with limited resources. The COVID-19 pandemic added further difficulties, but his team managed to adapt and continue their chip design work remotely.
