Abstract
Terez Shea-Donohue is the program director of the Division of Digestive Diseases and Nutrition at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases of the National Institutes of Health. As a program director, Terez supports basic and translational research related to neurogastroenterology, gastrointestinal (GI), and GI epithelial barrier function. We spoke to Terez about the transition from active research to a predominantly administrative job, the need for life-long mentorship, and the continued sex/gender bias in health care.
期刊介绍:
Since its establishment in 1896, the Journal of Experimental Medicine (JEM) has steadfastly pursued the publication of enduring and exceptional studies in medical biology. In an era where numerous publishing groups are introducing specialized journals, we recognize the importance of offering a distinguished platform for studies that seamlessly integrate various disciplines within the pathogenesis field.
Our unique editorial system, driven by a commitment to exceptional author service, involves two collaborative groups of editors: professional editors with robust scientific backgrounds and full-time practicing scientists. Each paper undergoes evaluation by at least one editor from both groups before external review. Weekly editorial meetings facilitate comprehensive discussions on papers, incorporating external referee comments, and ensure swift decisions without unnecessary demands for extensive revisions.
Encompassing human studies and diverse in vivo experimental models of human disease, our focus within medical biology spans genetics, inflammation, immunity, infectious disease, cancer, vascular biology, metabolic disorders, neuroscience, and stem cell biology. We eagerly welcome reports ranging from atomic-level analyses to clinical interventions that unveil new mechanistic insights.
