About the collection

Amidst an abundance of dietary advice and claims, this Collection aims to critically examine scientific evidence surrounding the impact of diet on cancer biology. 

We seek contributions that elucidate the genuine connections between dietary factors, such as nutrients, bioactive compounds, and eating patterns, and their potential effects on cancer initiation, progression, and treatment outcomes.

This Collection is open for submissions of invited authors only.
