For those scientists who have submitted their research manuscripts to The Journal of Biological Chemistry over the past 50 years (and even those who haven’t), Herbert Tabor is nothing less than a living legend. Tabor, 95, has been on the journal’s masthead since 1961. As if that tenure is not amazing enough, you also should note that Tabor’s first JBC paper was published in 1943! And just this past fall, he marked a milestone of sorts by having a new paper accepted 70 years after his first.
