October is designated as Liver Cancer Awareness Month, with various global activities that will highlight and increase the awareness of liver cancer for research support and development. We would like to take this opportunity to extend our appreciation to all the researchers who have contributed to the fight against this disease. In particular, we would like to share some of the high-quality and innovative research findings in the field of liver cancer, as published in Cancers (ISSN: 2072-6694). We hope this announcement will provide useful information regarding this field.
