MICHAEL J. WADE RECEIVES 2009 SEWALL WRIGHT AWARD

The Quarterly Review of Biology is proud to announce that Dr. Michael J. Wade, one of our Associate Editors and Distinguished Professor of biology at Indiana University, has been selected to receive the 2009 Sewall Wright Award. The Sewall Wright Award is given annually by the American Society of Naturalists to honor a senior investigator who is making fundamental contributions to promoting the conceptual unification of the biological sciences.

RECENT APPOINTMENTS

The Editors and staff of The Quarterly Review of Biology are very pleased to announce that Dr. Daniel E. Dykhuizen, Editor of the QRB, has been appointed to the rank of Distinguished Professor and that Dr. Rosina Bierbaum has been appointed as a member of President Obama’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.

100 Reasons to Change How We Think About Genetics
Article Reviews Evidence for Epigenetic Inheritance in Wide Range of Species

Increasingly, biologists are finding that non-genetic variation acquired during the life of an organism can sometimes be passed on to offspring—a phenomenon known as epigenetic inheritance. An article to be published this week in The Quarterly Review of Biology lists over 100 well-documented cases of epigenetic inheritance between generations of organisms, and suggests that non-DNA inheritance happens much more often than scientists previously thought.

Female Mate Choice in Mammals
Tim Clutton-Brock and Katherine McAuliffe
Study of olfactory mating cues is still in its infancy, Clutton-Brock and McAuliffe said. But they believe that this line of research will continue to reveal much about mammalian mate choice. These findings were published in the March issue of The Quarterly Review of Biology.
