We are proud to announce that the paper “A Unified Framework for One-Shot Achievability via the Poisson Matching Lemma”, co-authored by Prof. Cheuk Ting Li (CUHK) and Prof. Venkat Anantharam (UC Berkeley), has been awarded the prestigious IT Society Best Paper Award. This marks the third time that the IE Department has won this award, with previous wins in 2005 by Prof. Raymond Yeung for Network Coding and in 2016 by Prof. Nair for developing a new technique for Gaussian optimality.

Congratulations to Prof. Li!
