<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">This fall INES members will be sponsoring meetups and panels at some of our key conferences. We are energized about the opportunity to reconvene and look forward to seeing many of you.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">These meetups will be strategically important to both INES and our journal
<i>Engineering Studies. </i>I’m thrilled to be moving into the Editor in Chief role at
<i>Engineering Studies</i> starting in January, following in the footsteps of Gary Downey and Cyrus Mody. I’m inspired by the work they’ve done to nurture our intellectual community and ensure that it is truly international in scope. I aim to build on these
strengths while ensuring that the journal is well positioned in relation to broader shifts in publishing trends. To do that, we need your input.
