David Luebke is a manager and founding member of NVIDIA Research, which he helped start in 2006 after eight years on the faculty of the University of Virginia. He has a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of North Carolina and a Bachelors degree in Chemistry from the Colorado College. Luebke's principal research interests are general-purpose GPU computing and realistic real-time computer graphics. Specific recent projects include fast multi-layer subsurface scattering for realistic skin rendering, temperature-aware graphics architecture, scientific computation on graphics hardware, advanced reflectance and illumination models for real-time rendering, and image-based acquisition of real-world environments. Past projects include the book "Level of Detail for 3D Graphics", for which Luebke was the lead author, and the Virtual Monticello museum exhibit, which ran for over 3 months and helped attract over 110,000 visitors as a centerpiece of the major exhibition "Jefferson's America and Napoleon's France" at the New Orleans Museum of Art.

Luebke has been a frequent attendee of Eurographics events since his first Rendering Workshop in 2001, has served as paper, program, and general chair of EG co-sponsored conferences such as Graphics Hardware and the Int'l Symposium on Interactive Ray Tracing, and has been a strong supporter of the Eurographics conference in his new corporate role.
