A message from 2024 GSA President, Mariana Wolfner.

We invite GSA members who are tenured faculty or faculty at an institution without tenure system, or that hold a tenure-track position but are pre-tenure, to complete a brief survey that will help us assess current resources for mid-career members and collect information about resources or topics you would like GSA to develop.

This important program that provides GSA members of any career stage up to $2,000 in funding for a project that will have broad and far-reaching impacts to the field of genetics, is switching to a bi-annual rather than quarterly timeline in 2025.

We invite you to read our Year in Review to learn about all of the work GSA has done to support our genetics community and what more we can do with your help.

In addition to their former roles as GSA Board and Committee members, Ambros and Ruvkun co-authored a paper on their work in GENETICS. They are recognized by the Nobel Assembly for their discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.
