• Articles you have written on DG issues
• Links to articles about your work
• A COLUMNIST - We're offering a monthly or bi-weekly column in dgOnline to the DG researcher or government participant (or perhaps several such people on a rotating basis) who can best bring a sense of "voice" to the DG program. Ideally you would submit a brief (200-1,000 words) column on DG -related issues. This should be viewed - in the relatively new field of DG-related publication - as a prestigious venue.
