摘要

Roberto Mayor是一位在英国工作的著名智利发育生物学家,也是拉丁美洲发育生物学学科的倡导者。罗伯托在智利读本科和研究生时,曾是一名胚胎植入前小鼠发育生物学家。然而,他现在用爪蟾和斑马鱼来阐明驱动神经嵴细胞定向集体运动的机制。这些年来,哪些生活事件塑造了罗伯托的研究生涯?本文阐述了这个问题,并从个人角度阐述了他的科学成就。罗伯特的故事是一个曲折和循环的混合体,最终引导他到达迁移的神经嵴。这使得他在模式生物和科学话题之间转换。这些循环驱使他往返于智利和英国之间,并将他作为本科生的早期研究与他实验室最近的工作联系起来。我们可以从罗伯托的生活中学到的一个重要教训是,无论你多么计划你的生活,意外总是起着重要的作用。但你必须保持警惕,勇敢地抓住生活提供给你的机会。

A tale of turns and cycles guiding to neural crest migration - an interview with Roberto Mayor.

Roberto Mayor is a prominent Chilean developmental biologist working in the UK and an advocate of the developmental biology discipline in Latin America. Roberto started as a preimplantation mouse developmental biologist during his undergraduate and graduate studies in Chile. Yet, he now uses Xenopus and zebrafish to elucidate the mechanisms that drive the directed collective locomotion of neural crest cells. What life events moulded the research career of Roberto across the years? This article addresses this question and provides a personal perspective on his scientific achievements. The story of Roberto is a mix of turns and cycles that ultimately guided him to the migrating neural crest. Turns that made him shift between model organisms and scientific topics. Cycles that drove him back and forth between Chile and the UK and which have connected his early studies as an undergraduate student with the most recent work of his lab. A big lesson that we can learn from the life of Roberto is that no matter how much you plan your life always serendipity plays a significant role. But you have to be alert and brave to take the opportunities that life offers you.

期刊介绍: The International Journal of Developmental Biology (ISSN: 0214- 6282) is an independent, not for profit scholarly journal, published by scientists, for scientists. The journal publishes papers which throw light on our understanding of animal and plant developmental mechanisms in health and disease and, in particular, research which elucidates the developmental principles underlying stem cell properties and cancer. Technical, historical or theoretical approaches also fall within the scope of the journal. Criteria for acceptance include scientific excellence, novelty and quality of presentation of data and illustrations. Advantages of publishing in the journal include: rapid publication; free unlimited color reproduction; no page charges; free publication of online supplementary material; free publication of audio files (MP3 type); one-to-one personalized attention at all stages during the editorial process. An easy online submission facility and an open online access option, by means of which papers can be published without any access restrictions. In keeping with its mission, the journal offers free online subscriptions to academic institutions in developing countries.
