Carcinogenesis (journal)

Last updated

History

The journal was established in 1980 by R. Colin Garner (University of York) and Anthony Dipple (National Cancer Institute). [4] [6] The original scope of Carcinogenesis was defined in the first issue as research relating to "the prevention of cancer in man", and the journal was conceived from the outset as a multidisciplinary journal, with the intention of encouraging the "cross-fertilization of ideas" across the "very broad spectrum of scientific endeavour" of cancer research. [7] In 2008, the journal added the subtitle "Integrative Cancer Research" to reflect its multidisciplinary scope. [8]

The journal was originally published by IRL Press, [6] [9] [10] which merged with Oxford University Press in 1989. [4] [11]
