Each month, Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics focuses on a particular theme. Twice a year, the associate editors, editors, and staff get together to discuss journal business and spend time setting up the calendar of themes. Often, there are no experts among us to take on a particular topic that we have chosen. The consequence is that one or two of us take on the theme and then have a crash course to learn as much as they can about it in order to solicit meaningful articles. This month's theme on rare diseases is such a case.
每个月,《临床药理学与治疗学》都有一个特定的主题。编辑们每年两次聚在一起讨论期刊业务,并花时间安排主题日历。通常,我们中间没有专家来承担我们选择的特定主题。结果是我们中的一两个人承担了这个主题,然后进行速成课程,尽可能多地学习相关知识,以便征集有意义的文章。本月关于罕见病的主题就是这样一个例子。
