Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue focuses on the rapidly evolving landscape of breast cancer research, with particular emphasis on molecular insights, novel therapeutic approaches, and innovative strategies for diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. Breast cancer remains a major global health challenge, and recent advances in genomics, proteomics, and molecular pathology are transforming our understanding of its heterogeneity and progression.

We aim to showcase cutting-edge discoveries that unravel the molecular mechanisms underlying breast cancer subtypes, therapeutic resistance, and metastasis. Contributions exploring emerging targeted therapies, immunotherapeutic approaches, liquid biopsy technologies, and predictive biomarkers are especially welcome. We are also interested in studies addressing integration of artificial intelligence, digital pathology, and personalized medicine in breast cancer management. 

By bringing together original research, comprehensive reviews, and translational studies, this Special Issue seeks to provide a valuable resource for scientists, clinicians, and healthcare professionals working to improve outcomes for patients with breast cancer. We strongly encourage researchers and experts from multidisciplinary backgrounds to contribute their latest findings and perspectives. Your insights will not only enrich the scientific discourse but also help shape future directions in breast cancer management and precision oncology. Together, let us advance meaningful progress in the fight against breast cancer.

Dr. Mariia Ivanova
Guest Editor

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Personalized Medicine is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
