In Memoriam: Toomas Parve (1949-2020)
It is with heavy hearts we learn about the passing of our dear colleague Toomas Parve in the morning of April 15, 2020. Toomas was an active member of IEEE IMS and EMBS, has been the chair of the IM/EMB/ED chapter and has contributed to the development of IEEE Estonia Section in numerous ways. He will be dearly missed.
