     Eunhye Baek - Assistant Professor







Dr. Eunhye Baek received her B.S. degree in Electronics and Electrical Engineering from Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH), South Korea, in 2011, and her M.S. degree in IT Convergence Engineering from POSTECH in 2013. She obtained her Dr.-Ing. degree in Materials Science from Dresden University of Technology (TU Dresden), Germany, in 2018.

From 2019 to 2023, she worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Department of Precision Instrument at Tsinghua University. From 2023 to 2024, she served as a Research Fellow at the Tsinghua Laboratory of Brain and Intelligence. Since 2024, Dr. Baek has been a Research Assistant Professor in the School of Integrated Circuits at Tsinghua University.

Her long-term vision is to investigate how biological intelligence arises from the interplay of materials and complex network architectures, and to realize these principles through circuits and large-scale integration, thereby enabling energy-efficient and adaptive brain-like intelligent systems.
