Jay Lewis, partner for silicon projects at Microsoft, has joined a National Institute of Standards and Technology office responsible for implementing research and development programs funded under the CHIPS for America Act.

Lewis will spearhead program areas within the CHIPS for America Research and Development Office that support the National Semiconductor Technology Center, the agency said Friday.
