ERRICOLO Danilo (S’97–M’99–SM’03–F’16) received the Laurea degree of Doctor (summa cum laude) in electronics engineering from the Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy, in 1993 and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering and computer science from the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC), Chicago, IL, USA, in 1998. He is a Professor and the Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, the Director of the Andrew Electromagnetics Laboratory, and adjunct Professor of Bioengineering at UIC. In 2017 he was nominated a University of Illinois Scholar. During the summer of 2009, he was an Air Force Faculty Fellow at the Air Force Research Laboratory, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, OH, USA. He has authored or coauthored more than 300 publications in refereed journals and international conferences. His research interests are primarily in the areas of antenna design, electromagnetic propagation and scattering, high-frequency techniques, wireless communications, electromagnetic compatibility, the computation of special functions, and magnetic resonance imaging. Dr. Erricolo was elected Full Member of Commissions B, C and E of the U.S. National Committee (USNC) of the International Union of Radio Science (URSI), a committee of the US National Academies. He served as Chair (2009-2011), Vice Chair (2006-2008) and Secretary (2004-2005) of the USNC-URSI Commission E on Electromagnetic Environment and Interference. He was Chair of the USNC-URSI Ernest K. Smith Student Paper Competition (2009-2014); Vice-Chair of the Local Organizing Committee of the XXIX URSI General Assembly, held in Chicago, IL, USA in August 2008; and Member at Large of USNC-URSI (2012-2017). He was the General Chairman of the 2012 IEEE International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation and USNC-URSI National Radio Science Meeting, held in Chicago, IL, USA in July 2012. He was an Elected Member of the IEEE AP-S Administrative Committee (2012-2014); Chair of the IEEE AP-S Distinguished Lecturer Program (2015-2016); and Chair of the Chicago Joint Chapter of the IEEE AP-S and Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (2011-2016). He has served on more than 50 conference technical program committees, chaired over 70 conference sessions and organized more than 30 special sessions at international scientific conferences. He served as Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ANTENNAS AND PROPAGATION between August 2016 and September 2022.
