International Women’s Day 2026: Celebrating excellence in antennas and propagation research by spotlighting women’s contributions

In March, we celebrate the leading role of women in antennas and propagation by highlighting a collection of articles published in 2025 that feature women in executive author roles (first, last, or corresponding author).

These works are drawn from a set of articles handpicked by our Editorial Board to call the attention of our readers to particularly interesting research published in the Transactions. We invite you to explore this collection which will be offered as open access until the end of March 2026.
