| Abstract | The Federal Decree n. 1802, published in December 12th 1907,(1) determined the creation of the "Instituto de Pathologia Experimental de Manguinhos", now the "Instituto Oswaldo Cruz" and one of the current 20 research institutes of "Fundação Oswaldo Cruz - Fiocruz". The same decree also determined the creation of a journal to disseminate the research work of the 'Instituto', stating in its 9th paragraph: "The research work carried out at the 'Instituto de Manguinhos' will be published as Memorias soon after confirming the experiments." The first printed edition of the journal Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz appeared in April 1909, with the publication of eight articles exclusively from the "Instituto de Manguinhos". Articles were published in dual language, Portuguese and either German or French. That was the beginning of a scientific journal that has demonstrated resilience and adaptation to the huge political, economic and social transformations that Brazil has suffered since the end of the 19th century. It has survived to become a centennial journal that keeps publishing research work in human infectious diseases, their agents and vectors in Latin America. Of course, Memorias do IOC is also a proud member of the exclusive and "highly selective" set of scientific journals in the world that has celebrated more than a century of publishing activity. The centenary milestone notwithstanding, Memórias do IOC pathway has not been a cool journey to success and recognition. Following the turbulent period of two World Wars and the consequences for the biomedical science research, Memórias do IOC existence was severely threatened during the "hard years" of 1960 and 70's decades, when intramural instability, administrative reorganisation and economic crisis under the military dictatorship in Brazil summed up to create a "storm" that caused an interruption of its publishing operation. The journal did not publish any article during the years of 1977-1979. That was an inflexion point in Memórias do IOC pathway, and to give a wide view of the journal till this decadency period, let us remember its early operational years taking as reference the publishing practice of those earlier decades. | en_US |
