Montiel-Nelson has contributed in IEEE publications titles, as Circuit and Systems (CAS) flagship conferences: 2006, 2007, 2008, 2011, 2014, 2018, 2019, 2023 IEEE 49th, 50th, 51st, 54th, 57th, 61st, 62nd, 66th International Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems (MWSCAS); 1997, 2001, 2006, 2007 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS); among others contributions in IEEE conferences. He is recipient of the Myril B. Reed Best Paper Award, 2008 IEEE 51st MWSCAS International Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems (MWSCAS), and he is member of the MWSCAS Steering Committee, since 2009, member of the IEEE Sensors, and reviewer in IEEE journals and conferences as: IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I and II, IEEE Transactions on Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI). From 1996 to 1997, he was a Visiting Scientist at the Centre for Very High Speed Microelectronic Systems of Edith Cowan University, Western Australia, Australia, and in the Department of Computer and Communication Engineering of the same university. He has been visiting fellow at several institutions and labs as, Michigan Technological University (Houghton, Michigan, 2015), Arizona State University (Phoenix, Arizona, 2023), Yonsei University (Seoul, Korea, 2011) and The Ford Greenfield Labs. From 1997 to 2003, he was Associate Professor in the Department of Electronic Engineering at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, where he is currently Full Professor. From 2003 to 2010, he was working for Vitesse Semiconductor Corporation (Camarillo, California), now Microsemi Corporation (NASDAQ: VTSS) in GaAs technology for very high speed communication circuits and systems. Since 1990, he has been with the Institute for Applied Microelectronics (IUMA) working on CAD and VLSI design of emergent technologies, performance estimation and optimization of circuits and systems, and functional and formal verification. From 1998 to 2002, he was head of the Telecommunication Engineering Faculty at ULPGC, and in 2021 Electronics and Telecommunication Faculty’s founder. Prof. Dr. Montiel-Nelson has been teaching Electronics Instrumentation in the bachelor and master’s degrees of Telecommunication Technologies and Industrial Electronics Engineering; VLSI design in the master’s degree of Electronics Engineering; MEMS design in the master’s degree of Electronics and Applied Telecommunication Research, and Biosensing in the bachelor´s degree of Bioengineering. Currently, he is senior member of the PhD programme in Telecommunication and Computational Engineering, Doctoral School, ULPGC. He has authored or coauthored more than 190 papers in edited books, international journals, and conference proceedings. Juan A. Montiel-Nelson has participated in relevant public and private contracts. Contributions of J.A. Montiel-Nelson include following research fields: very high–speed integrated circuit (VHSIC) design (circuit, logic, and module design; full-custom design and ASIC synthesis) in GaAs, SiGe, InP, and very deep submicrometer CMOS technologies; performance estimation and optimization of digital integrated circuits and systems (including power
‒
delay tradeoff, timing, and interconnect analysis); and verification of circuits and systems (satisfiability, functional verification, and formal checking). His current research area is design and integration of biological and bio-medical sensor devices and embedded intelligence.
