The Velo-Cardio-Facial Syndrome Journal is the first journal devoted entirely to velo-cardio-facial syndrome (also knows as DiGeorge syndrome, 22q11 DS, etc.). Besides being the first journal devoted to VCFS, its unique system for publication and reader response makes it your journal, not our journal. Articles in the journal are available to anyone who wishes to download them and can be distributed to anyone, anywhere. We will publish articles as we receive them, so check back often. We will announce the publication of each new article on the Facebook page for the Virtual Center for Velo-Cardio-Facial Syndrome. If you would like to be notified of new articles as they are published, simply register on our web site which will put you on a notification email list.
