ecancermedicalscience is an open access cancer journal focused on under-resourced communities. In order to help reduce global inequalities in cancer care and treatment, we provide free access to all articles from the point of publication and we only charge authors who have specific funding to cover publication costs.
The journal considers articles on all aspects of research relating to cancer, including molecular biology, genetics, pathophysiology, epidemiology, clinical reports, controlled trials (in particular if they are independent or publicly funded trials), health systems, cancer policy and regulatory aspects of cancer care.
This special issue is dedicated to the memory of Mario Sideri, a leading visionary who understood long before others the importance of HPV in the development of cervical cancer. The issue reflects Dr Sideri’s dedication to the field of preventive gynaecology and encompasses contributions from many of his colleagues and close friends. It is clear that we live in a very exciting time in the field of cervical cancer and pre-cancer and so we hope this synopsis of where we are today in the field of cervical cancer and its prevention will be a useful reference tool.
Apart from HPV screening and vaccination papers, the special issue touches on the causes of cervical cancer, the biology behind the disease, markers of progression and how to recognise and treat pre-cancerous lesions.
All the articles are available in both Spanish and English.
