本期是《计算机辅助分子设计杂志》（JCAMD）第26年的第一期。通过这期杂志，我们纪念JCAMD成立25周年，过去的25年，更是展望未来，展望未来的25年。在这个问题上，你会发现来自32位杰出思想领袖的一组不同的观点，包括我们的创始人，编辑委员会成员，过去的编辑，经常的审稿人和经常的作者。他们可以自由表达自己，无论他们想要的长度，主题和语气。我们唯一的要求是，他们考虑“在未来25年内（我们的领域）会发生什么，可以发生什么，或者必须发生什么”。由于我们不能真正考虑如果不了解过去和现在会发生什么，其中几位作者也为我们提供了对我们历史的洞察力，许多人持有一面镜子到现在。其结果是一组有趣的论文，许多主题，长度和语气：严肃，有趣，娱乐，发人深省，批判，赞美，绝望，希望，预言，甚至一个科幻小说（未来的事实？）故事它们太多样化了，无法在这里进行总结，而且如此多样化，以至于编辑们发现很难对它们进行分类和排序。因此，它们只是按字母顺序出现，只有一个例外，即加兰马歇尔，他是JCAMD和药物发现与设计展望（PD3）（于2001年并入JCAMD）的杰出创始人。事实上，马歇尔教授本身就是计算机辅助分子设计领域的创始人。事实上，如果没有我们创始人的远见，我们独特的期刊（唯一一个专门致力于CAMD领域的期刊）就不会提供给过去25年来在这里发表文章的数千名作者。JCAMD于1987年由加兰马歇尔、汉斯·迪特·霍尔特耶和J. D.文特尔PD3由保罗安德森、乔治肯扬和加兰马歇尔创立。因此，我们想把这个问题献给那些最终负责的人，我们的创始人。为了荣誉这一时刻，春天出版社慷慨地提供了免费的在线开放访问3个月后出版。请慢用欢迎评论，一如既往地提交给“给编辑的信”。
This issue is the first of the 26th year of the Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design (JCAMD). With this issue we commemorate JCAMD’s 25th anniversary, the last 25 years, and even more so we look toward the future, forward into the next 25 years. In this issue, you will find a diverse set of Perspectives from 32 prominent thought leaders including our founders, editorial board members, past editors, frequent reviewers, and frequent authors. They were given free rein to express themselves with whatever length, topic, and tone they desired. Our only request was that they consider ‘‘what will, can, or must happen in the next 25 years [to our field]’’. In that we cannot truly consider what will happen without understanding the past and present, several of the authors also provide us with insight into our history and many hold a mirror to the present. The result is an intriguing set of papers of many topics, lengths, and tones: serious, funny, entertaining, thought provoking, critical, laudatory, despairing, hopeful, prophetic, and even one science fiction (future fact?) story. They are too diverse to summarize here and so diverse that the editors found it hard to classify and order them. Consequently, they appear simply in alphabetical order with one exception, that of Garland Marshall, a distinguished founder both of JCAMD and Perspectives in Drug Discovery and Design (PD3) (which was merged into JCAMD in 2001). Indeed, Professor Marshall is a founder of the field of computer-aided molecular design, itself. In fact, without the vision of our founders, our unique journal (the only one dedicated solely to the field of CAMD) would not have been available to the thousands of authors who have published here in the last 25 years. JCAMD was founded in 1987 by Garland Marshall, HansDieter Holtje, and J. D. Vinter. PD3 was founded by Paul Anderson, George Kenyon and Garland Marshall. Consequently, we would like to dedicate this issue to those ultimately responsible, our founders. In honor of this occasion, Spring Publishing has generously granted free online open-access for 3 months after publication. Please enjoy. Comments are welcome as always as a submission to ‘‘letters to the editor’’.
