From the Editor
The information theory society has recently organized a range of events, including our ISIT conference (celebrating many prestigious award recipients and hosting the joint D&I and WITHIS event), the INCOMING DLR PhD Summer School, the European School of Information Theory, and the SYSU Workshop. In this newsletter edition, we highlight the lively social interactions and activities that unfolded during these in-person gatherings.
