The Editorial team at PLOS Biology believes strongly that we are Open for a Reason; precisely so that research in areas of high importance reaches the widest audience.  Cancer research is one such area that should be as openly available, with associated data mineable and reusable, ideally in an open access, CC-BY journal as quickly as possible. Open access ensures the most expedient, economic and practical route to discovery and to developing potential therapeutic advances for the suite of diseases and conditions that we tend to over-simplify and apply one name to, cancer.

PLOS Biology is open for cancer research, and to highlight some of the discoveries we’ve published in this broad field, we’ve gathered together some research articles that cover various aspects of cancer biology published in PLOS Biology over the last few years, so if you’re interested in learning more about some of this great research take a look:

If you visit the PLOS booth (booth #544) at the AACR Annual Meeting 2013, you can collect a printed version of this collection. We hope that you will enjoy these research and magazine articles from PLOS Biology; as with all of our content they are Open Access and freely available to all.

We encourage you to consider PLOS Biology as a high visibility venue for your future research. We are interested in all areas of cancer research traversing the bedside-to-bench spectrum, and we welcome translational studies. Our editorial model involves a partnership between professional and academic editors that guarantees our authors the best of both worlds; editorial expertise from the in-house team combined with the up-to-date specialised scientific knowledge of your colleagues who serve on our editorial board.

We hope you find this collection interesting. For more information about PLOS Biology and to submit your research, please visit www.plosbiology.org.
