I have known Terri Grodzicker for over four decades as a colleague and friend. So it is a distinct and personal pleasure to write this deep appreciation of Terri's stewardship of Genes & Development. Terri took over the journal in the late 1980s, after having established a flourishing career as an independent scientist for many years at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, one of the premier institutions in the world. CSHL has the added advantage of sponsoring world-class meetings and courses; this gave Terri the ammunition she needed to ensure that G&D would thrive as a purveyor of the most interesting and rigorous science in the areas that it published. She knew who was doing the most interesting work and had the savvy to establish a network of colleagues and friends who were only too happy to send their work to the journal and, in some cases, to help her by serving as members of the G&D Editorial Board (more on that below). Importantly, it was due to her taste and insight that G&D moved quickly from being on rather shaky ground in the journal hierarchy to one that is among the most prestigious scientific journals.

Terri Grodzicker 如何改变基因与发育

作为同事和朋友，我认识 Terri Grodzicker 已有四十多年了。因此，写这篇对特丽 (Terri) 对基因与发育 (Genes & Development)的管理工作的深刻赞赏是一种独特的个人乐趣。特丽 (Terri) 于 1980 年代后期接管了这本杂志，此前她在冷泉港实验室 (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory) 建立了多年的独立科学家事业，该实验室是世界一流的机构之一。CSHL 拥有赞助世界级会议和课程的额外优势；这给了 Terri 确保G&D所需的弹药将作为其发表的领域中最有趣和最严格的科学的提供者而蓬勃发展。她知道谁在做最有趣的工作，并且精明地建立了一个同事和朋友的网络，这些同事和朋友非常乐意将他们的工作发送给期刊，并且在某些情况下，通过担任 G&D Editorial 的成员来帮助她董事会（更多内容见下文）。重要的是，正是由于她的品味和洞察力，G&D迅速从期刊等级中相当不稳定的地位发展成为最负盛名的科学期刊之一。
