Pathology and Oncology Research

Aims & Scope

Pathology & Oncology Research (POR) is an interdisciplinary Journal at the interface of pathology and oncology including the preclinical and translational research, diagnostics and therapy.

Furthermore, POR is an international forum for the rapid communication of reviews, original research, critical and topical reports with excellence and novelty.

Published quarterly, POR is dedicated to keeping scientists informed of developments on the selected biomedical fields bridging the gap between basic research and clinical medicine.

It is a special aim for POR to promote pathological and oncological publishing activity of colleagues in the Central and East European region.

The journal will be of interest to pathologists, and a broad range of experimental and clinical oncologists, and related experts.

POR is supported by an acknowledged international advisory board and the Arányi Fundation for modern pathology.
