His technical interests and expertise are in the field of very low-power analog and RF IC design, semiconductor device modeling, and inexact and error tolerant circuits and systems.He has published more than 200 scientific papers and has contributed to numerous conference presentations and advanced engineering courses. Together with E. Vittoz and F. Krummenacher he is one of the developer of the EKV MOS transistor model and the author of the book "Charge-Based MOS Transistor Modeling - The EKV Model for Low-Power and RF IC Design" (Wiley, 2006). He has been member of several technical program committees, including the International Solid-State Circuits Conference (ISSCC) and European Solid-State Circuits Conference (ESSCIRC). He has served as a vice-chair for the 2000 International Symposium on Low Power Electronics and Design (ISLPED), exhibit chair for the 2000 International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS) and chair of the technical program committee for the 2006 European Solid-State Circuits Conference (ESSCIRC). Since 2012 he has been elected as member of the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society (SSCS) Administrative Commmittee (AdCom). He is also Chair of the IEEE SSCS Chapter of Switzerland.

Etudes à l'Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Zurich (ETHZ) en Suisse. Après son diplôme de cristallographe obtenu en 1966, il prépare sa thèse dans la même institution sous la direction du Prof. A. Niggli qui a été défendue en 1972. Il a poursuivi durant trois ans ses travaux de recherche au Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory en Californie dans le laboratoire du Prof. D. H. Templeton, spécialiste bien connu dans la champ de la diffraction résonante. De retour en Suisse, il rejoint l'Institut de cristallographie nouvellement créé à l'Université de Lausanne sous la direction du Prof. D. Schwarzenbach. En 1991, il est nommé professeur ordinaire puis en 1999, directeur de l'Institut de cristallographie. En 2003, son unité est transférée à l'Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale à Lausanne où il est nommé professeur ordinaire.
G. Chapuis a présidé de nombreux comités et sociétés internationaux dans le domaine de la cristallographie. En particulier, il a présidé le comité des structures apériodiques de l'Union Internationale de cristallographie (IUCr). Il est également membre de la commission de l'enseignement de cette même organisation. Il a également présidé la société suisse de cristallographie.
G. Chapuis est co-éditeur du Journal Acta Crystallographica et participe dans de nombreux comités de lectures pour différentes revues scientifiques consacrées à la cristallographie et à la physique du solide.
Ses domaines de recherche couvrent plus spécifiquement l'étude théorique et expérimentale des structures apériodiques et en particulier les structures incommensurables par diffraction et dynamique moléculaire. Il est l'auteur de plus de trois cents articles scientifiques publiés dans des revues internationales avec arbitrage. De plus G. Chapuis se consacre au développement interactif de l'enseignement de la cristallographie avec les nouvelles technologies de communication accessibles sur Internet.
