Cancer Research
Cancer Research publishes impactful original studies, reviews, and opinion pieces of high significance to the broad cancer research community. Cancer Research seeks manuscripts that offer conceptual or technological advances leading to basic and translational insights into cancer biology. Manuscripts that focus on convergence science, the bridging of two or more distinct areas of cancer research, are of particular interest. The main scope of the journal is captured in its primary subsections: Cancer Biology, Cancer Immunology, Cancer Metabolism and Molecular Mechanisms, Therapeutic Development and Chemical Biology, Translational Cancer Biology, Cancer Landscapes, Computational Cancer Biology and Technology, and Convergence Science.
Title information
Cancer Research welcomes submission of original research and review articles to the journal. For descriptions and length requirements of the article types available to submitting authors, see the journal’s Categories of Articles.
The AACR Journals all use a similar Editorial Process and adhere to the same overarching Editorial Policies, both of which are detailed in the Information for Authors. These instructions contain important guidelines on authorship, publishing ethics, availability of materials and data, and data analysis and reporting. Authors should be familiar with these instructions prior to submitting their work to the journal. Manuscripts are stringently reviewed for high standards of scientific merit, and only those that report results of novel, timely, and broadly significant research are accepted for publication.
Editorial oversight of Cancer Research and decisions on manuscripts submitted to the journal are the responsibility of the Editorial Board with support from journal staff. See Editorial Board for more information.
