  1. Dear Mariette,

    Thank you for being the editor of Scientific American all these years. You have led the journal to a socially concerned, humanity-based perspective… in other words, you’ve given a human heart to Scientific American. I especially remember the editorial which courageously took the position that bringing back mammoths via DNA was certainly a fascinating prospect… but what about all the species that are dying out virtually every day? I wish you the best in your new endeavor and know that you will bring heart to Boston University.

    Best regards,

    Russ Bush
