The aim of this note is to announce some results on the GIT problem for the Hilbert and Chow scheme of curves of degree $d$ and genus $g$ in the projective space of dimension $d-g$, whose full details will appear in [6]. In particular, we extend the previous results of L. Caporaso up to $d>4(2g-2)$ and we observe that this is sharp. In the range $2(2g-2) < d < \frac{7}{2} (2g-2)$, we get a complete new description of the GIT quotient. As a corollary, we get a new compactification of the universal Jacobian over the moduli space of pseudo-stable curves.
