Paul Leroux (Senior Member, IEEE) was born in Eeklo, Belgium, in 1975. He received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electronic engineering from Katholieke Universiteit (KU) Leuven (University of Leuven), Leuven, Belgium, in 1999 and 2004, respectively. From 1999 to 2004, he was a Teaching and a Research Assistant within the MICAS Research Group, Department of Electrical Engineering (ESAT), KU Leuven. In 2009, he became a Professor with ESAT, KU Leuven, where he headed the Electrical Engineering (ESAT) Technology Cluster from November 2011 to July 2016. Since August 2016, he has been the Campus Chair of KU Leuven Geel Campus. His current research activities within the Advanced Integrated Sensing Lab (ADVISE) Research Group focus on radiation-hardened analog, mixed-signal, and RF integrated circuit design for instrumentation and communication applications in nuclear fusion, and space and high-energy physics. His group is part of the European Center for Nuclear Research (CERN) Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) collaboration, where he is acting as the KU Leuven Team Leader. He has (co)authored more than 200 papers in international journals and conference proceedings. Dr. Leroux received the Studiecentrum voor Kernenergie [Belgian Nuclear Research Centre (SCK-CEN)] Prof. Roger Van Geen Award from the Fonds voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek [Research Foundation–Flanders (FWO)] and Fonds de la Recherche Scientifique [Fund for Scientific Research (FNRS)] for his highly innovative work on IC design for harsh radiation environments in 2010.
