## 2025, Yuen T. Lo Outstanding Research Award at ECE Illinois
{:.textCol}
Congratulations to Mr. Sangrui Luo for receiving the prestigious Yuen T. Lo Outstanding Research Award at ECE Illinois. This award recognizes a graduate student who has demonstrated excellence in research in the area of Electromagnetics.
Sangrui’s research focuses on advancing statistical electromagnetic modeling and simulation, an area critical to understanding electromagnetic (EM) wave physics in complex confined systems. Sangrui is a recipient of Richard B. Schulz Award for the Best Transactions Paper in IEEE TEMC (2nd Place), Best EMC Symposium Paper Award (2nd Place), Best EMC Student Paper Semi-Finalist, and Best Student Paper Award Honorable Mention at APS/URSI.
## 2025 Best Propagation Paper Award Finalist at EuCAP 2025

Our recent work, “Photon Splatting: Real-Time Neural Representation for Predicting 3D Indoor Radio Channels,” was selected as a finalist for the 2025 Best Propagation Paper Award at the European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP 2025), held in Stockholm, Sweden.
The paper introduces a physics-inspired neural framework that models radio wave propagation by projecting photon interactions onto continuous spatial-temporal fields. We are excited to continue advancing this line of research at the intersection of wireless communications, electromagnetics, and computer graphics.
