The magnitude, scope, sophistication, and funding support for biomedical research are unprecedented and continue to increase dramatically. Discoveries in basic science, especially based on molecular biology and sequencing of the human genome, have rapidly accelerated and continue to expand. Effective translation of the new knowledge, mechanisms, and techniques generated by advances in basic science research into new approaches for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disease is essential for improving health.

While THE JOURNAL seldom publishes articles on preclinical research, we believe that physicians and other health care professionals should maintain an awareness about recent scientific discoveries and promising advances in biomedical research. Accordingly, this theme issue of JAMA is designed to provide information on new discoveries in basic science and translational research, with emphasis on novel findings for common diseases and conditions.
