Aside from presentations, papers, awards, and grants, early stage scientists build meaningful careers through connections with their communities. Staying engaged beyond the lab, whether through participating in workshops, seeking mentors, or communicating with the public, is key.  After speaking at BigBREW recently, where we shared our work with “Taking Our Best Shot” (TOBS), we began…

Tensions between Americans and Europeans are running high in European waters. Among lobsters, that is. As a new study in G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics explains, the European lobster Homarus gammarus, which is already red-listed in parts of its range, is increasingly threatened by the American species Homarus americanus. H. americanus is typically larger and more aggressive than…

In this interview, Sarah Ruttenberg of the GSA Early Career Scientist Policy and Advocacy Subcommittee talked with principal investigator Lawrence Brody who directs the division of genomics and society for the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), in Bethesda, Maryland. Brody has managed both a research lab and science policy programs for almost two decades.

The previous post in this two-part series focused on the United State’s current research funding model and the history behind it—but today, we’re facing policy debates that may radically change this long-standing process. In the last two years, the U.S. federal administration has pushed for changes to how federal funds are allocated and used. A…

Research funding today is complicated.  Much of that complexity traces back to World War II, which reshaped who pays for science. Prior to the war, most research funding came from philanthropic donations and government labs. Depending on the donor, funds were used for a new building or to support a specific researcher. For instance, Thomas…

If you work in a lab that receives funding from the U.S. federal government, chances are that you’ve heard the term “R01” (pronounced “R – OH – 1”). An R01 is one of the many grant types awarded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The R series, or Research Grant, is the most common…

A new model of copulatory wounding in Drosophila melanogaster offers a genetic tool to study sexual conflict.

As Genomic Prediction continues to gain momentum, we’re looking for impactful research to publish. Could your work be the next scientific breakthrough?

We’re excited to welcome new editors to the GENETICS and G3 editorial boards.

Standardizing how genomes are sequenced, assembled, annotated, and reported on will make them more comparable, reproducible, and reusable for the research community.

We’re taking time to get to know the members of the GSA Early Career Scientist Subcommittees. Join us to learn more about members of the Early Career Leadership Program.
