Shaik Jani Babu earned a bachelor's degree in technology from Vasireddi Venkatadri Institute of Technology in 2013 and a master's degree in technology from the National Institute of Technology, Hamirpur, in 2016. In January 2017, he joined Shiv Nadar university for pursuing Ph.D. degree in VLSI design, where he worked for five years in brain-inspired circuits and computing. He also worked in research domains such as FPGA based digital design, emerging memory devices, in-memory computing, CMOS circuit reliability and so on. Currently, he published four peer-reviewed SCI journals and nine conferences publication in scopus indexed. He has attended several workshops/internships during his academic carrier. He is IEEE student member.
