Abstract

What is Humanities in Medicine? ONCOLOGY dives beyond clinical metrics of survival rates and molecular pathways and explores the narrative medicine of diagnosis, the ethical complexities of end-of-life care, and the psychological impact of chronic illness on both patients and practitioners. This section aims to enhance provider empathy, mitigate burnout, and center the patient's lived experience within the rigorous framework of medical science.

当言语不足：沉默与同情的一堂课。

什么是医学中的人文学科？肿瘤学超越了生存率和分子途径的临床指标，探索了诊断的叙事医学，临终关怀的伦理复杂性，以及慢性疾病对患者和从业者的心理影响。本部分旨在增强提供者的同理心，减轻倦怠，并将患者的生活经验置于严格的医学科学框架内。

期刊介绍： Although laboratory and clinical cancer research need to be closely linked, observations at the basic level often remain removed from medical applications. This journal works to accelerate the translation of experimental results into the clinic, and back again into the laboratory for further investigation. The fundamental purpose of this effort is to advance clinically-relevant knowledge of cancer, and improve the outcome of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of malignant disease. The journal publishes significant clinical studies from cancer programs around the world, along with important translational laboratory findings, mini-reviews (invited and submitted) and in-depth discussions of evolving and controversial topics in the oncology arena. A unique feature of the journal is a new section which focuses on rapid peer-review and subsequent publication of short reports of phase 1 and phase 2 clinical cancer trials, with a goal of insuring that high-quality clinical cancer research quickly enters the public domain, regardless of the trial’s ultimate conclusions regarding efficacy or toxicity.
