This way, each time a name is listed, the template cross-lists all references to that person (publications, events, classes etc). -- links to external Stanford events/classes/clinics/fellowships/journals/projects Q: FSI database generally includes all publications written by the faculty affiliated with its centers. I'm not sure we should do this in this portal (why would we do this?) but it may be interesting to announce the new publications (e.g. Anne Firth's new book) in the News section. |
