Current Oncology | National Stomach Cancer Awareness Month

National Stomach Cancer Awareness Month in November aims to increase public knowledge, support those affected, and encourage research toward more effective treatments and early diagnosis. We would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to all of the researchers who have contributed to this field. In particular, we would like to share some of the innovative research findings in the related fields, published in Current Oncology (ISSN: 1718-7729).
