Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Liver disease encompasses a broad and exciting area of investigation that intersects with multiple areas of ongoing research endeavors. This Special Issue is dedicated to exciting and informative investigations around malignancies of the liver. From the identification of biomarkers, drug discovery and therapeutic interventions to investigations of the molecular phenotypes of various liver pathologies, this field of study is rapidly changing.
This Special Issue aims to collect articles in cutting-edge areas of investigation involving liver cancer research, including those which could contribute towards translational solutions for world-wide health challenges associated with hepatic malignancies using innovative ideas and rigorous scientific methodologies. In the case of review articles, they could provide a synthesis of ideas and have the potential to lead to future innovations, while simultaneously creating novel frameworks capable of advancing our understanding of cancers of the liver. We encourage Editorial Board Members of the liver section to contribute feature papers reflecting the latest progress in their research field, or to invite leading experts to contribute.
Prof. Dr. David A. Gerber
