Dear {{lead.First Name:default=edit me}},

We are pleased to present the March 2025 issue of IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation, featuring 60 newly published articles. In this issue, we are introducing VOICES, a special interview series celebrating 75 years of innovation in the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society. We are kicking off with a special set of episodes for International Women’s Day 2025, spotlighting the role of diversity and inclusion in advancing technology. We invite you to explore the first two episodes, which were launched on the International Women’s Day, with more episodes to be released throughout March. You are reminded of two open calls for Special Issue Papers—don’t miss the opportunity to contribute your research.

Happy reading!
