In Fall 2025, Prof. Guler organized the ECE Graduate Seminar series (ECE 596), hosting 13 speakers from academia, industry, and government. The talks spanned a wide range of ECE research areas, including biomedical circuits and wearable/implantable bioelectronics, machine learning hardware and TinyML, wireless and semantic communications, quantum computing circuits, semiconductor test engineering, medical imaging and robotics, and brain-computer interfaces, along with a session on transitioning from academia to a career in government research.
