Writing a textbook that synthesized the field from the perspectives of embryology, genetics, cell biology and molecular biology was a challenge. Because this field evolves so rapidly, a textbook can only lay the basic foundation for understanding new information and provide the framework that helps scholars place new information into context throughout their career. In this essay, I propose that an international college of specialists be established to provide authoritative online updates on developmental biology topics as a service to students and the professional developmental biology community.
从胚胎学、遗传学、细胞生物学和分子生物学的角度综合论述该领域的教科书是一项挑战。由于这个领域发展极为迅速,一本教科书只能为理解新信息奠定基础,并提供一个框架,帮助学者在其整个职业生涯中将新信息融入其中。在本文中,我提议成立一个国际专家学院,以便为学生和发育生物学专业人士提供有关发育生物学主题的权威在线更新服务。
