Lighting the Path to Developmental Biology through Clear Direction Mentoring
Last summer, I had the opportunity to share my love for developmental biology and help train the next generation of scholars via a weeklong immersive Internship. The Internship was initiated by Clear Direction Mentoring, a nonprofit organization that provides long-term STEMM mentorship for underrepresented minority students from high school through college.

Meet the Inaugural SDB Science Communication InternsSDB President's Message: Why Meetings Matter
The inaugural Society for Developmental Biology Science Communication Interns have been selected. Lydia Grmai (University of Pittsburgh), Andrew Montequin (Northwestern University), and Brittany Truong (University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus) will begin their internship in September 2022. In addition to the three interns, four trainees were selected as honorable mentions.
SDB President's Message: Why Meetings Matter
Victoria Prince
President, Society for Developmental Biology
Several weeks on, I am still enjoying a feeling of post-meeting
energization generated by participating in the Joint SDB-PASEDB Meeting
in Vancouver. This was an outstanding meeting where a great deal of
excellent science was presented, but it was largely the reconvening with
like-minded colleagues that made me such a happy scientist. Here I
want to share a few thoughts on why that is: why (in my opinion)
meetings matter.
Developmental Biology
Developmental Biology, the official journal of the Society for Developmental Biology, publishes original research on mechanisms of development, differentiation, and growth in animals and plants at the molecular, cellular, genetic and evolutionary levels.
