Acta Neuropathologica Communications is calling for submissions to our new Collection "Investigating the Biology of Brain Metastases".

This Collection is seeking articles that focus on the biology of brain metastases, with an emphasis on the molecular characteristics of brain metastases, biomarkers that indicate response and resistance to different therapies, the development of preclinical models, and an examination of the unique tumor immune microenvironment of the brain. We also welcome articles that explore new and innovative therapeutic targets or treatment methods, particularly in preclinical models of brain metastases. Additionally, we are interested in studies that examine human tissue samples from patients with brain metastases, taken especially before and after therapy.
Overall, this Collection aims to bring together the latest research on brain metastases biology to inform the scientific community and ultimately lead to improved treatment options for patients.
There are currently no articles in this collection.
Before submitting your manuscript, please ensure you have read our submission guidelines. Articles for this Collection should be submitted via Editorial Manager. During the submission process you will be asked whether you are submitting to a Collection, please select "Investigating the Biology of Brain Metastases" from the dropdown menu.
Articles will undergo the journal’s standard peer-review process and are subject to all of the journal’s standard policies. Articles will be added to the Collection as they are published.
The Guest Editors have no competing interests with the submissions which they handle through the peer review process. The peer review of any submissions for which the Guest Editors have competing interests is handled by another Editorial Board Member who has no competing interests.
