Translational Lung Cancer Research (TLCR, Transl Lung Cancer Res, Print ISSN 2218-6751; Online ISSN 2226-4477) is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal, which was founded in March 2012. TLCR is indexed by Web of Science [Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE)], PubMed/PubMed Central, Scopus and the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) Databases. It is published quarterly (Mar. 2012 - Jan. 2013), bimonthly (Feb. 2013 - Dec. 2020), monthly (Jan. 2021 -) and openly distributed worldwide. TLCR received its latest impact factor of 3.5 for the year 2024. It provides practical up-to-date information on prevention, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of lung cancer and related thoracic diseases. Specific areas of its interest include, but not limited to, multimodality therapy, markers, imaging, tumor biology, pathology, chemoprevention, and technical advances related to lung cancer and relevant thoracic diseases. TLCR is dedicated to focus on cutting-edge developments at the transition from preclinical to clinical research and thus closes the gap between “bench and bedside”. The aim of TLCR is to provide a forum for the dissemination of original research and review articles in all areas related to lung cancer, as well as a timely platform for the exchange of key opinions between leading experts, and so to provide readers with a novel, well-organized, informative, enlightening and educational journal.
