Oncology: State-of-the-Art Research in the USA

Dear Colleagues,

Among many other countries, the USA is at the forefront of cancer research. There are commitments from stakeholders from academic institutions, health service organizations, industries, funding bodies and public and patient advocacy groups to support research into all types of cancer. We have a unique National Health Service, which emphasizes the needs of everyone and is free at the point of delivery. It believes that integrating research into the health service organization will improve outcomes and transform cancer care.  

In this Special Issue, we aim to showcase state-of-the-art research in oncology in the USA. We invite submissions looking at all kinds of research covering all cancer types and stages, from basic laboratory research to translational and clinical research, including cohort studies, randomized controlled trials and epidemiological studies. Narrated reviews describing the history and significant contributions of cancer research in the USA are also welcomed.
