Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Breast cancer, a multifaceted disease, remains one of the most prevalent and concerning diseases affecting women worldwide. With its complex nature and significant impact on public health, extensive research efforts are dedicated to understanding, treating, and ultimately eradicating this disease. Breast cancer research encompasses a wide range of scientific disciplines, from molecular biology and genetics to clinical trials and epidemiology. This research is driven by the urgent need to improve early detection methods, develop targeted therapies, and implement effective prevention strategies. With advancements in breast cancer research, our understanding of the disease has been transformed with revolutionized treatment approaches.
The aim of this Special Issue is to bridge the gap between laboratory research (bench) and clinical application (bedside) in the context of drug development for breast cancer. It seeks to highlight the multidisciplinary efforts involved in understanding the molecular mechanisms of breast cancer, identifying novel therapeutic targets, and translating these discoveries into effective treatments for patients. The issue will encompass original research articles, review papers, and perspectives that explore various aspects of breast cancer drug research, from fundamental biology to clinical trials, aiming to foster collaboration and accelerate progress toward improved patient outcomes.
