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.

Ever wonder what happens after you contact your elected officials? Former AAAS-ASGCT Congressional Policy Fellow in the U.S. House of Representatives, Adriana Bankston walks us through the journey of a congressional advocacy letter and explains how scientists can use their voices to help shape research funding and federal policy.

The use of experimental models to answer diverse scientific questions is fundamental to scientific research. In a resource-limited research setting such as Nigeria, there is a growing need to build local expertise and capacity in the use of experimental models like C. elegans among researchers. In response to this need, our lab, Laboratory for Experimental…

This past summer, I traded my usual bench and fluorescent lighting for tide pools, salt air, and the quiet rhythm of the Salish Sea. I spent four weeks at Friday Harbor Laboratories (FHL) on San Juan Island, Washington—one of the oldest marine field stations on the West Coast. My PI, Dr. Brad Shuster, mentioned the…
