The peer-reviewed journal ecancermedicalscience is an open access cancer journal focused on supporting under-resourced communities. As of the 21st September 2020 the submission criteria is being refined to only accept articles which feature at least one author from a low and middle-income country (LMIC) or which have a significant impact on under-resourced communities.
The aim of this change is to contribute to addressing the current imbalance in global scientific publishing and increase the data available for basing national cancer control plans on in LMICs. Sharing context specific research and guidelines will be vital to addressing the rise in cancer cases which is predicted in under-resourced settings.
The journal considers articles on all aspects of research relating to cancer, provides editorial support and operates a ‘donate what you can afford’ model. Find out more and submit your articles at ecancer.org/en/journal.
