In response to requests for improved networking opportunities among associate professors at UC Davis, the ADVANCE program and Office of the Vice Provost-Academic Affairs have introduced the UC Davis Associate Professor Network (APN).  This social and professional network will be built upon a simple e-mail listserv that will connect faculty who are in the associate professor rank. The goal is to facilitate the formation of connections between faculty members from across campus so that information about resources and opportunities may be shared, collaborations initiated, and friendships made and sustained.
