Journal of the National Cancer Center

The Journal of the National Cancer Center (JNCC) is a peer-reviewed and fully open-access journal that publishes high-quality articles in all areas of cancer research. Launched in March 2021, the journal aims to promote studies that answer fundamental questions of cancer biology and epidemiology, and facilitate state-of-the-art approaches for cancer prevention, detection, diagnosis, and treatment. As a prominent platform to communicate advances in cancer research and cancer-related health policies, the journal presents original research articles, news stories, systematic and focused reviews, commentaries, brief communications, correspondences, and editorials.

JNCC adopts an efficient process of rigorous yet rapid review of submitted manuscripts so that timely findings of significant scientific impact can be published with minimal delay.
