Each issue of Update has a theme for its feature articles. See the Editorial Calendar for issue themes. The submission of nonfeature articles and Letters to the Editor for each issue also is encouraged. Update does not guarantee publication of submitted material.
Authors do not receive any type of remuneration from FDLI.
