The state of publishing scientific papers is untenable. It can take upto 2yrs from submission to acceptance/rejection in hi impact journals. Junior scientists can't wait that long, it impacts their careers. Editors want unsustainable levels of data when grants are limited.

Mike’s contribution to cancer research throughout his career can’t be overstated and I’ve been fortunate to see the impact of some of his work in recent years. Congratulations for the richly deserved award!
