《遺傳學》由美國遺傳學學會出版，這是一個學術(shù)團體，旨在通過增進我們對遺傳學的理解來加深我們對生活世界的理解。1916年以來，遺傳學發(fā)表了高質(zhì)量的原創(chuàng)研究，提出了遺傳學和基因組學方面的新發(fā)現(xiàn)。該雜志出版了從微生物到人類的各種有機體的實證研究，以及理論著作。雖然它有著輝煌的歷史，但遺傳學已經(jīng)隨著它所服務的群體而改變:它不是你導師的期刊。編輯們在35天左右的時間內(nèi)迅速做出決定，而不會犧牲《華爾街日報》長期以來的卓越表現(xiàn)和學術(shù)成就。《遺傳學》是一份同行評議、同行編輯的期刊，具有國際影響力，日益增加的知名度和影響力。所有的編輯決策都是由至少兩名從事科研工作的編輯合作做出的。
