DXY founder Tiantian Li recently held an in-depth conversation with the three Co-Editors-in-Chief of SKIN—Prof. Xinghua Gao, Prof. Yong Cui, and Prof. Henry W. Lim—to explore a central question:

Why does Chinese dermatology need an English-language journal?

The discussion also covered the journal’s distinctive positioning, the design of its “New Quality Productive Forces” section, and its mission to advance global skin health.

Prof. Xinghua Gao:

Prof. Gao compared dermatology to the ocean—vast, boundless, and filled with opportunities for exploration. An English-language journal originating from China, he noted, is like a vessel that enables Chinese dermatology to navigate the deep sea of global scientific discovery.

 

Prof. Henry W. Lim:

Having witnessed the development of Chinese dermatology over more than two decades, Prof. Lim emphasized the remarkable progress achieved by the field. “An English-language journal is essential for helping the world understand the advances and contributions of Chinese dermatology.”

 

Prof. Yong Cui:

Prof. Cui highlighted the importance of empowering the next generation. More than 40% of the journal’s Editorial Board members are young and mid-career experts, reflecting a commitment to enabling emerging leaders to both introduce international advances to China and share Chinese experiences with the world.
