Recognition for Young Researchers in Wireless Networks
Yan Kyaw Tun, a young researcher from the Department of Electronic Systems, has received the prestigious "IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc) Outstanding Young Researcher Award 2024 for the Europe, Middle East & Africa (EMEA) Region." The award recognizes a researcher under 35 who works on wireless communications and networking research. Yan was selected for this prestigious award for his promising research activities for the benefit of the Society and achievements over the past three years.

“As a young researcher, this award motivates and encourages me to continue advancing the field, and I hope it will also help me expand my network.”

Yan Kyaw Tun, Tenure Track Assistant Professor, Department of Electronic Systems.

Award Fosters Motivation and Supports the Research Environment
The award not only recognizes Yan's skills but also acknowledges the dedication behind his work. For Yan, it represents renewed motivation to keep exploring and expanding his research. He emphasizes, however, that this recognition extends beyond his personal achievements, reaffirming Aalborg University’s reputation as a leading research environment in wireless communication.

“Aalborg University already has a strong reputation and leading research in wireless communication and networks. This award can serve as a testament to that reputation.”
