Jean Anne C. Incorvia is an Associate Professor in The Chandra Family Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin, where she directs the Integrated Nano Computing (INC) Lab. Dr. Incorvia develops nanodevices for the future using emerging physics and materials. This includes research in spintronics (electronics that uses magnetism and spin to encode information), nanomagnetism, bio-inspired neuromorphic computing, in-memory computing devices and circuits, 2D materials-based computing, computing in extreme environments, and application of new materials to health, energy, and security.
Dr. Incorvia received her bachelor’s in physics from UC Berkeley in 2008 and her Ph.D. in physics from Harvard University in 2015, cross-registered at MIT. From 2015-2017, she completed a postdoc at Stanford University. She has over 80 articles published in peer-reviewed journals and conference proceedings and has given over 80 invited talks. She is a recipient of the Engineering Foundation Endowed Faculty Fellowship in Engineering from the UT Austin Cockrell School of Engineering. She received a 2020 US National Science Foundation CAREER award, the 2020 IEEE Magnetics Society Early Career Award, a 2021 Intel Rising Stars award, and the 2023 Applied Physics Letters (APL) Rising Star Award. She was an invited contributor to the 2020, 2022, and 2024 IEEE International Roadmap for Devices and Systems (IRDS) on magnetic-based computing, a main document to predict the future of electronics. She is leading multi-PI collaborations with Sandia National Laboratories and has received funding from 9 National Science Foundation and 4 Department of Energy grants as of 2024, as well as has worked with and received funding from Samsung Electronics, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC), Lockheed Martin, Applied Research Laboratories (ARL-UT), and the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI). Dr. Incorvia has served on and taken leadership roles in the International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM), the Device Research Conference (DRC), the Magnetism and Magnetic Materials Conference (MMM), and Intermag. She as an associate editor for the IEEE Journal on Exploratory Solid-State Computational Devices and Circuits.
