Uncovering the biodiversity of genetic and reproductive systems: time for a more open approach. American Society of Naturalists E. O. Wilson Award winner address.

Important scientific findings frequently arise from serendipitous findings. Unfortunately, many scientists are not prepared to take advantage of unexpected results and to question established paradigms, and this prevents them from capitalizing on their good fortune. In this essay, I first explain how pure serendipity led us to discover unusual modes of reproduction such as clonal reproduction by males and a green-beard gene. Next, I argue that the reproductive systems of ants and other organisms are probably much more diverse than is generally appreciated. This leads me to advocate for a new "molecular naturalist" approach to reproductive systems and a more "naturalistic" approach in population and evolutionary genetics. Finally, I make two further points. The first is that our current funding and education systems tend to hinder originality and curiosity. The other is that the field of ecology and evolution, and more generally all of science, would benefit from a shift in values from scientific productivity to scientific creativity. A few suggestions are made to this effect.

Society of pediatric psychology presidential address: opportunities for health promotion in primary care.

OBJECTIVE: To set an agenda for health promotion in primary care settings. METHODS: This is a review of the scientific bases of child development as applied to pediatric psychology and health promotion. RESULTS: Primary care is an ideal setting for health promotion because there is a "hidden morbidity" of children with unrecognized and untreated behavioral and developmental problems that, if unresolved, may lead to psychiatric and physical disorders and increased use of the health care system. Although pediatric psychologists endorse the importance of health promotion, there are few examples in the literature involving pediatric psychologists. Recommendations are provided for a proactive agenda for health promotion programs involving pediatric psychologists in primary care. CONCLUSIONS: With conceptual homes in clinical and developmental psychology, expertise in theories of clinical and child development, scientific methods, and collaborative relationships with pediatricians, pediatric psychologists are in a unique position to develop and evaluate health promotion programs for use in primary care.
