This issue brings to you our interview with Dr. Ervin Sejdić, an Associate Professor at the Swanson School of Engineering, University of Pittsburgh, where he directs a research laboratory focused on engineering developments in medicine. His research has focused on creating computational biomarkers indicative of age- and disease-related changes in functional outcomes such as swallowing, gait, and handwriting. 

The IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) has extended the nomination period for the position of the Chair, Young Professionals Committee in order to allow for a more diverse slate of candidates.

The first camera phone was sold in 2000, when taking pictures with your phone was an oddity, and sharing pictures online was unheard-of. Today, barely twenty years later, the smartphone is more camera than phone. This transformation was enabled by advances in computational photography — the science and engineering of making great images from small form factor, mobile cameras. 

In accordance with the Bylaws of the IEEE Signal Processing Society, I am writing to solicit nominations for the Awards Board and the Nominations and Appointments (N&A) Committee. This year, the Society will be filling TWO positions on the N&A Committee for the term 2021-22 and TWO positions on the Awards Board for the term 2021-2023.
