INTRODUCTION
|
|---|
We, the Managing Editor and Statistical Advisor of the
Japanese Journal of Clinical Oncology (JJCO), had a chance to visit the
Journal of the National Cancer Institute (JNCI) editorial office
in Bethesda, Maryland, in the USA. As is generally known, JNCI
is acclaimed as the source for the most up-to-date information
in the field of cancer research. It is also the most-cited academic
journal in oncology. Whilst there we took the opportunity to
interview the Executive Editor, Dr Rebecca Chasan, and the Managing
Editor, Mr Mark Leader (Fig. 1). They graciously spent more
than 3 hours with us. As the information that they shared with
us is highly valuable for both editorial staff and authors,
we have summarized the major points from the interview and draw
comparisons between JNCI and JJCO.
