Biography: 
Mauro Ettorre (M’08–SM’15-F’23) received a Laurea degree “summa cum laude” in Electrical Engineering, and a Ph.D. degree in Electromagnetics from the University of Siena, Italy, in 2004 and 2008, respectively. Part of his Ph.D. work was developed at the Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research (TNO), The Hague, the Netherlands, where he later worked as an Antenna Researcher. From 2008 to 2010, Dr. Ettorre was a Postdoctoral Fellow at Institut d’Electronique et de Télécommunications de Rennes (IETR), University of Rennes 1, France. In 2010 and 2016, he was a Visiting Scholar in the Radiation Laboratory, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, University of Michigan, USA. From October 2010 till 2023, he was a Research Scientist at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), within the IETR. Since 2023, he is a professor in in the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at Michigan State University, East Lansing, USA. From 2014 until 2020, he assumed responsibilities for the multi-beam antenna activity for satellite applications in the joint laboratory between IETR and Thales Alenia Space, France. Since 2017, he serves as Associate Editor for the IEEE Transaction on Antennas and Propagation. In 2017, 2018, and 2019 he was member of the best paper award selection committee for the IEEE Transactions on Terahertz Science and Technology. Since 2020, he serves as Associate Editor of the open access journal Reviews on Electromagnetics of European Association on Antennas and Propagation (EurAAP) for which he serves as Associate Editor. In 2020 and 2021 he was appointed EurAAP ambassador. In 2023, he was member of the best paper award selection committee for the IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation. Since 2021, he is member of the technical committee MTT-29 Microwave Aerospace Systems. In 2023, he has been elected member of the Board of Director of EurAAP. Dr. Ettorre’s research interests include the analysis and design of leaky-wave antennas, periodic structures, millimeter-wave antennas and arrays, non-diffractive radiation and localized waves, near-field focusing techniques, and wireless power transfer systems. Dr. Ettorre received the Young Antenna Engineer Prize at the 2008 ESA Antenna Workshop in the Netherlands, the Innovation Award at 2018 ESA Antenna Workshop in the Netherlands, the Best Paper Award in Electromagnetics and Antenna Theory at the 2018 ‎European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP), London, UK, the Best Antennas Paper Award at EuCAP 2021, Düsseldorf, Germany, and the Best Paper Award at the 2023 International Workshop on Antenna Technology (iWAT), Aalborg, Denmark. ‎
