The IEEE Long Island Section has put together a couple of seminars, conferences, and events. The Section is fortunate to have a group of dedicated volunteers who are very active with their respective societies and committees. Please join me to commend the sincere effort of all our volunteers.

Hope you know that the IEEE designates extraordinary Members in different fields as Distinguished Lecturer (DL) in the respective society. The individual society encourages the DLs to lead their fields in new technical developments and covers their travel. We are proud to announce that a couple of DLs are scheduled to give special lectures on Long Island. Thanks to the Signal Processing Society, Photonics Society and others for taking initiative in inviting the DLs. Hope you will attend these extraordinary lectures.

The nominations for the Section Officers and volunteers are in process. If you are interested or know anybody who is interested and capable of serving on any of the Section committees, please let us know.

October 4, 2016, will be celebrated as the IEEE Day. Please join the Section to commend the hard works of all Engineers and Scientists, and to promote the mission of IEEE.

You are also cordially invited to join the World Maker Fair on October 1-2, 2016.

As always, your comments and suggestions are valuable to us. Looking forward to hearing from you on how we can better serve the community.

Thanking you,

M. Nazrul Islam, PhD
