Overview

Journal of Cancer Biology is an international peer-reviewed, open access, interdisciplinary journal publishing high quality papers by biomedical researchers across the globe in the field of cancer science, but not limited to, cancer biology, clinical cancer research, and cancer prevention. The journal publishes original articles and editorials, letters to the editor, review articles, case reports and short communication describing research and perspectives relevant to cancer researchers. The journal aims to be the foremost source of latest updates in cancer science for the scientific communities globally. It strives to publish articles that are reliable, available and enhanced with reasonable figures, tables and information

 

Aims and Scope

The scope of a Cancer Biology Journal typically encompasses a wide range of topics focused on understanding, diagnosing, and treating cancer. Here's an overview of common areas of focus:

1. Basic Cancer Research

  • Molecular mechanisms of cancer initiation, progression, and metastasis.
  • Genetic and epigenetic changes in cancer.
  • Tumor microenvironment and its influence on cancer biology.
  • Cancer cell signaling pathways.
  • Role of inflammation and immune responses in cancer.

2. Translational and Clinical Research

  • Development of cancer biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis.
  • Personalized and precision medicine in cancer treatment.
  • Clinical trials and novel therapeutic strategies.
  • Mechanisms of drug resistance and treatment efficacy.

3. Therapeutic Research

  • Targeted therapies, including immunotherapy and gene therapy.
  • Chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and combination treatments.
  • Development and testing of small molecules and biologics.
  • Role of nanotechnology in drug delivery.

4. Prevention and Epidemiology

  • Risk factors and prevention strategies.
  • Population studies on cancer incidence and survival rates.
  • Impact of lifestyle and environment on cancer development.

5. Technological and Methodological Advances

  • Omics technologies (genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics).
  • CRISPR and other gene-editing technologies in cancer research.
  • Advances in imaging and diagnostic tools.
  • AI and machine learning in cancer prediction and treatment.

6. Interdisciplinary Studies

  • Systems biology approaches to understanding cancer.
  • Integration of bioinformatics in cancer research.
  • Cancer biology at the intersection of physics, mathematics, and engineering.

7. Special Topics

  • Rare cancers and under-researched tumor types.
  • Cancer disparities and global perspectives on cancer care.
  • Pediatric oncology.
