Welcome to the spring 2017 edition of Signals. In this issue, we focus on the service to, and accomplishments of our faculty in research as well as education. We also share the sad loss of a member of the ECE family. We would also like to remind all our readers that we depend on your contributions for our “Where are they now?” section. We would love to hear from you—career and professional moves, personal or life updates. Please email your contributions to ececomm@umn.edu or fill out our “Where are they now form?”
