Welcome from the editor
Welcome to the May-June issue of Member News magazine.
Welcome to the May-June issue of Member News magazine.
In this issue, we showcase our recent media coverage highlights, ranging from national news outlets including The Telegraph and Sky News, to regional radio stations and key trade publications.
We explore pioneering radar sensors for healthcare and technology with our A F Harvey Engineering Research Prize winner, Dr Changzhi Li, and find out how his innovations are improving wireless human-machine interfaces and smart living.
We highlight the recommendations we set out for the comprehensive spending review on strengthening the resilience and security of critical national infrastructure with IET policy manager Jayne Black.
In our latest member profiles, we get to know our newest international Honorary Fellow, Justina Ho, and find out how she became an inspirational role model to the next generation. We also meet Pakistan’s youngest chartered engineer who shares his journey of juggling a PhD, career and fatherhood, all while giving back to the engineering community. We celebrate International Women in Engineering Day by shining a spotlight on an incredible member, Dr Evona Teh, and we sit down with Cameron Bee to explore how volunteering has been a defining factor in his life and career.
Plus, we share details of our 2025 disability research project which hopes to enable us to better support underrepresented groups in STEM fields and build a more diverse workforce where a broad range of experiences, identities and perspectives can be heard.
As always, the success of Member News relies on the stories we are able to tell, and we want to showcase the incredible work our members and volunteers are doing to engineer a better world for us all. If you would like to get in touch, please email membernews@theiet.org – we would love to hear from you!
And don’t forget, we will be exploring subjects featured in the magazine in more depth across our social channels, such as EngX, and we encourage you to join the conversation.
We hope you enjoy this issue.
