Unus pro Omnibus, Omnes pro Uno (One for All, All for One)

[摘要] Congratulations to The Oncologist on the occasion of its Silver Jubilee. As one of the senior editors of The Oncologist, I am happy to witness this important event. At the birth of our journal, Bruce and Marty invited me to join the senior editorial board, joining Greg Curt, Eli Glatstein, and John Niederhuber. Soon thereafter Frank Balis and Gabe Hortobagyi joined the senior board as well. Section heads for each tumor type were soon nominated, which proved to be an efficacious formula. Initially, there were only American section heads, but after a quick start under the guidance of our most experienced editorin-chief Bruce Chabner and our solid base consisting of Marty and Ann Murphy, I proposed to add a European head to each section in addition to the American head. From the very beginning this proved to work well, while the collaboration between the two section heads steadily grew. This was the very beginning of a dialogue between the European and the U.S. editors. The journal flourished, and it soon became clear that The Oncologist filled the gap between the high-rating scientific journals and the information need of practicing oncologists and hematologists. The readership grew under the inspiring leadership of our editor-in-chief Bruce Chabner, my unbeatable tutor with his unique bird’s eye view. All this, with the indispensable Murphy team, the beating heart of The Oncologist.
