Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Skin cancer is a pressing global health concern with increasing incidence rates, and this Special Issue aims to provide a platform for the dissemination of cutting-edge research and knowledge in this field. Our objective is to collect a diverse range of research articles, reviews, and original contributions that address various aspects of skin cancer, including its epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, diagnostic approaches, novel therapies, and prevention strategies.
We invite contributions from researchers, clinicians, scientists, and pathologists to submit their work on topics such as melanoma, non-melanoma skin cancers, risk factors, molecular mechanisms, therapeutic strategies, and emerging technologies. Our goal is to foster a multidisciplinary approach, promoting collaboration between experts in dermatology, oncology, genetics, molecular biology, and pathology.
Through this Special Issue, we aim to advance our knowledge of skin cancer, ultimately contributing to better diagnostic methods, treatment options, and preventive measures. We look forward to receiving high-quality research papers and reviews that will shed light on the intricacies of skin cancer and pave the way for improved patient care and outcomes.
Many thanks.
Prof. Dr. Ovidiu Simion Cotoi
