 Editor's note: With this issue, we initiate a symposium on the epidemiology of vitamin D. Our Guest Editor, Dr. Cedric Garland, has overseen the project and will provide an overview and commentary at its completion. The current contribution deal with measurement and clinical interpretation of Vitamin D, and with some aspects of the relationship of Vitamin D and cancer. Subsequent issues will continue the discussion of cancer, with attention to the risks of vitamin D and perspectives on its use for cancer prevention.
