Newsletter

from the President - continued from page 1

Program Committees. It is a significant milestone in our Society’s mission and will hopefully become a regular feature of the annual meeting. I would personally like to thank all those who made this new feature possible. Please take a moment to visit the ACOG web site at http://www.acog.org/ to learn more about that organization’s mission and goals.

I look forward to seeing you at the 48th Annual Meeting in Monterey, California. •

Mark Hurtt, Chair of Publications Committee

The Publications Committee, Teratology Society Council and Wiley-Liss are pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Diana Juriloff as Editor-in-Chief of Birth Defects Research Part A. Dr. Juriloff is a Professor of Medical Genetics at the University of British Columbia. She gave her first paper at the Teratology Society meeting in 1976, and became a member of the Society in 1980.

Dr. Juriloff earned her Ph.D. in Genetics at McGill University under the direction of F. Clarke Fraser, one of the founders of the Teratology Society, and completed a NATO Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Jackson Laboratory. She joined the faculty at the University of British Columbia in 1981 and has served on numerous national committees and grant review boards.

In recognition of her scientific contributions, Dr. Juriloff has received numerous awards, including but not limited to the James G. Wilson Publication Award for best paper in Teratology and a James G. Wilson Publication Award for best paper in Birth Defects Research. Additionally, throughout her career, Dr. Juriloff has given lectures, supported various research and funding programs, and has served on a variety of Editorial Boards.

Dr. Juriloff’s scientific accomplishments are impressive, and we value her dedication and commitment to the continued success and growth of Birth Defects Research Part A. We are pleased and excited to welcome her in this new role. •
