APA Journal - Academic Pediatrics
Letter From the
Founding Editor-in-Chief
Reflections on the 10th Anniversary of the Journal
James M. Perrin, MD, Founding Editor-in-Chief
The end of 10 years as Editor-in-Chief of Ambulatory
Pediatrics provides me some perspective on the
growth of the journal and the Academic Pediatric
Association (APA) over this decade. During my time on
the board of the APA (chair of the Public Policy Committee
and the Research Committee at different times), I had
reluctantly supported the notion that the APA should
have an official journal, although I voted against an independent
journal—instead believing that the APA would
be best served through linking with an ongoing successful
journal. The APA had some discussions with one of the key
pediatric journals at the time but decided against a relationship
because that journal would not allow the APA to have
any role in the choice of new editors and for concerns about
other sponsors of that journal. The board then voted to
pursue an independent path, including possibilities of
assuming oversight for an ongoing journal or developing
a new journal.
