Distinguished Women in Microwaves Event:

The Women in Microwaves (WiM) event at the upcoming IEEE Radio & Wireless Week (RWW) 2025 will spotlight distinguished women who have advanced the field of microwave theory and technology considerably. Three outstanding women in microwaves will discuss their respective research fields and careers. A light reception will accompany the event, allowing us to network and connect. Dr. Sandra Cruz-Pol, ERC Program Director, National Science Foundation, Alexandria, VA, USA, will talk about RF Sensors for Remote Sensing the Earth and the Importance of RF Spectrum Management. Dr. Bernadette Smith, a Senior R&D Software Engineer at Keysight Technologies, USA, will detail Millimeter and Sub-THz Noise Figure and Noise Parameter Measurements for 6G. Prof. Ifana Mahbub from The University of Texas at Dallas, TX, USA, will dive deep into the Next Generation of Wireless Power Transfer Network of Unmanned Aircraft Systems.

Young Professionals Panel:

This interactive panel will offer a rare opportunity to tap into the minds of accomplished professionals who have navigated the complexities of either industry or academia. The panelists will provide guidance to young professionals and answer questions from the audience. Join us at the Young Professionals Panel for a chance to connect, learn, and ignite your career!
