If it seems like Dr. Anna Scaglione has jumped on many different topics in her research, that was by design. “I appreciate people who have the patience to drill down and remain in one area for their scholarly career, but I’ve moved my research interests and work areas quite a bit to develop new expertise, hoping to bring a fresh point of view,” she says. “There may not seem to be a clear logic, but there’s a method to the madness.” She has also been on an interesting career journey in academia, having been a faculty member at four different institutions before landing at Cornell Tech this past fall as a professor of electrical and computer engineering.

Back in the Lab: Katehi tackles research in embedded intelligent chips
In the fall of 2019, Dr. Linda Katehi joined the faculty at Texas A&M University as a professor of electrical engineering and computer science. One year in, she couldn’t be happier. Throughout the course of her successful career in academia, Katehi has been dean of engineering, provost and vice chancellor of academic affairs, and chancellor, but at Texas A&M, Katehi has recaptured the energy of her first teaching position at the University of Michigan. The students are bright and curious. The faculty is engaged. The weather is beautiful. Most importantly, after more than almost two decades of administrative roles, Katehi is back in the research lab and classroom. She continues to be a mentor and advocate for women in science, technology, engineering, and math while embarking on new research in embedded intelligent chips that could change the way we interact with technology.
