Prashansa Mukim is a Postdoctoral Associate in the Alternative Computing Group in the Nanoscale Device Characterization Division of the Physical Measurement Laboratory (PML). She received a B.E. in Electronics and Communications Engineering from the University of Delhi, India, and a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of California, Santa Barbara. Her doctoral research was focused on the design of complimentary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) precision timing circuits such as multi-phase oscillators and on-chip communication links that utilize pulse-mode signaling. Her current research interests include development of energy-efficient spike-based neuromorphic hardware using novel signal encoding schemes and characterization of CMOS circuits at cryogenic temperatures.
