Professional challenges in the coming decade.

: Last month, as part of our observance of the 15th anniversary of Physician Assistant journal, members of our Editorial Board offered their views on turning points in the history of the PA profession. In this issue, we jump from the past to the future, with perspectives on the main crises or changes facing the profession in the coming decade. You may agree or disagree with these viewpoints. Diversity of opinion keeps the PA profession dynamic and strong--which is exactly why Physician Assistant journal provides an open forum for letters and guest editorials.
