TRENDS IN GENETICS

Trends in Genetics was launched in 1985 and quickly became a “must read” journal for geneticists, known for its concise, accessible articles on a range of topics from developmental biology to evolution. This tradition continues today, and TiG remains a favorite in the community for its distinctive content. As the field has changed, though, so too has the scope of the journal, which now encompasses new areas, such as genomics, epigenetics, and computational genetics, while continuing to cover traditional subjects like transcriptional regulation, population genetics, and chromosome biology. The core aim of the journal, however, is still to provide researchers and students with high-quality, novel reviews, commentaries, and discussions and, above all, to foster an appreciation for the advances being made on all fronts of genetic research.Each issue of TiG contains concise, lively and up-to-date Reviews and Opinions as well as a variety of shorter articles, such as Science & Society and Spotlight pieces. Reviews are invited from leading researchers in a specific field and objectively chronicle recent and important developments. Opinon articles provide a forum for debate and hypothesis, and shorter articles discuss aspects of genetics at the intersection of science and policy as well as emerging ideas in the field. All articles are peer-reviewed.TiG welcomes correspondence. The decision to publish rests with the Editor, and the author(s) of any article discussed in a Letter will normally be invited to reply. Letters may address topics raised in recent issues of the journal, or other matters of general interest to geneticists.

《遗传学趋势》创刊于1985年，很快成为遗传学家“必读”的期刊，以其简明易懂的文章而闻名，涵盖从发育生物学到进化论的一系列主题。这个传统一直延续到今天，TiG仍然是社区中最受欢迎的，因为它有独特的内容。然而，随着该领域的改变，该杂志的范围也发生了变化，它现在涵盖了基因组学、表观遗传学和计算遗传学等新领域，同时继续涵盖转录调控、群体遗传学和染色体生物学等传统学科。然而，该杂志的核心目标仍然是为研究人员和学生提供高质量的、新颖的评论、评论和讨论，最重要的是，培养对基因研究各方面进展的欣赏。每一期的TiG包含简洁、活泼和最新的评论和观点，以及各种较短的文章，如科学与社会和重点报道文章。邀请特定领域的主要研究人员进行评论，客观地记录最近和重要的发展。Opinon的文章提供了一个辩论和假设的论坛，更短的文章讨论了科学和政策交叉的遗传学方面，以及该领域的新兴观点。所有文章都经过同行评审。TiG欢迎信件。出版的决定取决于编辑，通常将邀请信中讨论的任何文章的作者作出答复。信件可能涉及最近一期杂志提出的话题，或遗传学家普遍感兴趣的其他问题。
