From June 14 to 18, 2026, the VLSI 2026 (Symposium on VLSI Technology and Circuits) unfolded its proceedings in the picturesque setting of Hawaii, USA. During the Best Student Paper Award ceremony of VLSI 2025, the research team hailing from the School of Integrated Circuits at Peking University was bestowed with this prestigious accolade. This achievement is particularly noteworthy as it signifies the inaugural instance in the 45-year legacy of the VLSI conference, which was initiated in 1981, that a team from the Chinese mainland has been honored with this distinction.
