Welcome to the February 2021 issue of VAN. Just scroll down the page for all the exciting news.  Some highlights come from our VAF members sharing their interesting work and accomplishments.  There is a reminder about our new publication schedule, so please keep sharing all those great pieces of news with me to include in our new monthly format.  You will also find another preview image from the tours being planned for the VAF annual meeting and conference in San Antonio in May 2022--mark your calendars!  Finally, the call for the next VAN Editor, with openings for two assistant editors is included in this issue.  If you are interested please don't hesitate to reach out and ask questions and encourage others to apply--it is a great way to learn more about the VAF community.

I hope you enjoy this issue!

Christine
