Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
2021 marks the 10th anniversary of the publication of Cells. We are delighted and proud to celebrate with a series of Special Issues and events. To date, the journal has published more than 4000 papers, and the journal website attracts more than 50,000 monthly page views. We would like to express our sincerest thanks to our readers, innumerable authors, anonymous peer reviewers, editors, and all the people working in some way for the journal who have made substantial contributions for years. Without your support, we would never have made it.
To mark this important milestone, a Special Issue entitled “10th Anniversary of Cells—Advances in Cell Signaling and Regulated Cell Death” is being launched. This Special Issue will collect, research articles, and high-quality review papers in the Cell Signaling research fields. We kindly encourage all research groups working in Cell Signaling areas to make contributions to this Special Issue.
This scientific journal is the collaborative achievement of many scientists from all over the world, and we would like to thank all our authors and reviewers who have contributed to this Special Issue. In recognition of our authors’ continued support, Cells is pleased to announce that the Cells Best Paper Awards for Anniversary Special Issues will be launched and granted to the best papers published in the Anniversary Special Issues.
