为促进中美两国微创外科之间的学术交流，让中国同道更多、更快了解国际微创外科的最新进展，同时也向国外同行展现中国微创外科发展风貌，让世界了解中国，推动更多的中国微创外科同道走向世界，CJMIS执行主编、前任编辑部主任傅贤波教授于2011年9月13日参加了在美国洛杉矶举办的“美国腹腔镜内镜外科医师协会(SLS)第20届年会”。会议期间，在SLS主席、JSLS主编、CJMIS国际顾问Paul Alan Wetter教授的精心安排下，傅贤波教授与Wetter教授，JSLS主编Michel Kavic教授，JSLS常务编委、CJMIS国际顾问、北京大学第三医院客座教授Maurice Chung教授专门就CJMIS与JSLS今后的合作进行深入讨论，就很多方面的合作达成共识。其中最重要的是，SLS与JSLS同意将JSLS中当今国际微创外科前沿和热点问题的论文，授权给CJMIS以中文摘要或全文形式刊登。JSLS为“美国科学引文索引(SCI)”、PubMed和Index Medicus收录的国际知名期刊，也将优先刊登由《中国微创外科杂志》推荐的优秀论文。从2013年起，CJMIS与SLS和JSLS每两年在中国联合举办一次“中美多学科微创外科高峰论坛”。CJMIS与SLS和JSLS的联手将为我国微创外科同道及时掌握世界微创外科最新进展，走向国际提供便捷渠道，也使《中国微创外科杂志》进入国际舞台。CJMIS编委、南京医科大学第二医院妇产科主任应小燕教授也出席了会议。

Message to the Chinese Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery

My dear colleagues:

It is with great pleasure that I announce the initial steps in joint scientific surgical publication by the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons and theChinese Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery.

This is a momentous event of joint cooperation in the widespread dissemination of surgical knowledge between our two countries.

Our goal is to share research from some of the brightest medical minds of our respective nations.And，in so doing，we hope to help raise the standards of surgical care in both the Western and Eastern worlds.

The journals will function as two equal partners in the advancement of surgical science and I am confident that our efforts will be successful.Other projects between thought leaders in China and the United States can build on the foundation of our joint publication of scientific work.There is much that needs to be done and much that can be done.
