By Ushma S. Neill| The Journal of Clinical Investigation@ With this entry, the Conversations with Giants in Medicine series comes to a close. The JCI is heading in a new direction with its video content, and I too will be heading in a different career direction that makes it hard to continue the series with the same care. As is often noted, “All good things must come to an end.” To watch a supercut of the last question I asked each subject, “What other vocation could have kept you as motivated?” see the JCI website at https://www.jci.org/videos/cgms.
By Ushma S. Neill| The Journal of Clinical Investigation@ Zhijian (James) Chen (University of Texas Southwestern and HHMI) has had a storied research career focused on the molecular mechanisms of innate immunity, the body’s immediate response to pathogens. For his discovery of the cGAS enzyme that senses foreign and self-DNA, Chen was awarded the 2024 Albert Lasker Basic Medical Research Award.

The Journal of Clinical Investigation
The Journal of Clinical Investigation (JCI) is a peer-reviewed biomedical journal established in 1924 by the American Society for Clinical Investigation (ASCI). It focuses on advancing the understanding of disease mechanisms and promoting translational research to improve clinical outcomes. The JCI was created to provide a platform for the rapid dissemination of clinical research, addressing publication delays that were common at the time. The journal publishes original articles, reviews, and commentaries on human pathophysiology, therapeutic interventions, and molecular mechanisms of disease. It offers open access to select content to facilitate the translation of scientific discoveries into clinical practice. The JCI also maintains an extensive archive that documents significant advances in medicine, including foundational work in endocrinology, immunology, and metabolism. Its primary audience includes physician-scientists, clinical researchers, academic institutions, and biomedical professionals engaged in translational medicine.
