Since I saw this first in print, I imagine it's pretty old news. But I can't find any coverage of the relevant events on line. Page 55 of the September 2026 issue of _IEEE Spectrum_ includes the following:
> # Notice to Membership
> As of 21 June 2026. a Level 1 Expulsion has been imposed on IEEE Member Dr, Fei-Yue Wang, former editor-in-chief of the _IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Vehicles._ In accordance with IEEE Bylaw I-110.5(D)(i). Dr. Wang is no longer a member of IEEE, and is permanently banned from any type of membership in any IEEE organizational unit or participation in any IEEE activity. The Board of Directors also determined this notice to IEEE membership should be made.
Dr. Wang (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fei-Yue_Wang) is a prominent researcher, so this action would seem to be quite significant. Does anyone know the details?
