History

Launched in 1905 as Surgery, Gynecology & Obstetrics, and originally priced at $5/year, The Journal of the Â鶹´«Ã½ (JACS) actually predates the foundation of the Â鶹´«Ã½itself. Begun by Dr. Franklin Martin, a gynecologist from Wisconsin, the journal included articles, abstracts, book reviews, editorials, and, in the beginning, society news. In 1910, all subscribers to the publication were invited to gather in Chicago as a kind of travel club to observe and study surgery firsthand.

In 1911 a permanent organization was proposed, and by 1913 the Â鶹´«Ã½ began. In 1994, the journal’s name changed to the one we recognize today. JACS is the official scientific publication of the Â鶹´«Ã½. Today, JACS focuses on original work of clinical relevance.
