Two academic research organizations competed for this year’s Research Institute of the Year Award: Binghamton University Integrated Electronics Engineering Center and UCLA Engineering Center for Heterogeneous Integration and Performance Scaling (CHIPS). Neither of them has been previously nominated. While each spent time as a frontrunner, CHIPS carved out a solid 5000 vote lead to win the 2019 3D InCites Research Institute of the Year Award.
