Genetic Models of Rare Diseases
Genes and variants of interest in rare diseases often benefit from modelling in cellular assays or genetic models to aid in understanding molecular and cellular mechanisms of disfunction. Model organisms are useful for the discovery of new genetic diseases and key to understanding variant effects, and modelling a disease gene in a genetic model means that researchers can perform an in-depth exploration of gene or variant function. The GSA Journals are pleased to publish a series highlighting ongoing advances in rare disease discovery and mechanisms by presenting key research findings and new discoveries.
Plant Genetics and Genomics
Plant science has generated many discoveries and advances in genetics and genomics research. These contributions reflect the ingenuity and rigor of the plant science community, as well as the rich diversity of plants and their biology. To showcase this critical work, GENETICS and G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics has launched the Plant Genetics and Genomics series with a collection of fourteen research articles and an accompanying editorial.
Neurogenetics
Neurogenetics lies at the intersection of Neuroscience and Genetics, where genetic approaches are applied to the study of nervous system development, function, and plasticity. Overseen by Series Editors Oliver Hobert, Cecilia Moens, and Kate O’Connor Giles, this new series aims to make the GSA Journals a home for cutting-edge, robust research in neurogenetics.
Fungal Genetics and Genomics
The fungal kingdom is remarkable in its breadth and depth of impact on global health, agriculture, biodiversity, ecology, manufacturing, and biomedical research. Overseen by editors Leah Cowen and Joseph Heitman, this series aims to report and thereby further stimulate advances in genetics and genomics across a diversity of fungal species.
FlyBook
FlyBook from GENETICS is a comprehensive compendium of review articles presenting the current state of knowledge in Drosophila research.
WormBook
WormBook from GENETICS features a comprehensive compendium of review articles presenting the current state of knowledge in C. elegans research. WormBook articles will span the breadth of the biology, genetics, genomics, and evolutionary biology of C. elegans.
YeastBook
The YeastBook series from GENETICS features a comprehensive compendium of reviews that presents the current state of knowledge of the molecular biology, cellular biology, and genetics of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
More from GSA
G3: Genes|Genomes|Genetics
G3, a Genetics Society of America journal, provides a forum for the publication of high-quality foundational research-particularly research that generates useful genetic and genomic information, as well as genome reports, mutant screens, and advances in methods and technology.
Join GSA
GSA members of all career stages receive member benefits including access to professional development programs, discounted meeting registration, and eligibility for travel awards. Members also receive a personal subscription to GENETICS, as well as discounted publication fees in both GSA journals.
Conferences
GSA conferences have long served as community hubs for researchers focused on particular organisms or topics. GSA also hosts The Allied Genetics Conference (TAGC), a unique meeting that brings together multiple research communities for collaboration and synthesis.
Career Development
GSA professional development programs provide rich opportunities for scientists to gain skills, experience, mentors, and networks. Our initiatives and resources range from peer review training to inclusive public engagement, newsletters, webinars, a job board, leadership programs, and much more.
