Clinical & Experimental Metastasis is an international multidisciplinary journal devoted to the rapid publication of fundamental advances in both basic and applied metastasis research. The Journal's scope encompasses all aspects of metastasis research whether laboratory-based experimental or clinical and therapeutic. It covers such areas as molecular biology pharmacology tumour biology and clinical cancer treatment (with all its subdivisions of surgery chemotherapy and radio-therapy as well as pathology and epidemiology) insofar as these disciplines are concerned with the Journal's core subject of metastasis formation prevention and treatment. While the emphasis is on speed of publication with papers normally published within 12 weeks of acceptance the Editors rigorously maintain refereeing standards to ensure only the highest quality research is selected for publication.
