What's new?
We are delighted to announce that Cancer & Metabolism's new 2 Year Impact Factor is 5.9, with a 5 Year Impact Factor of 6.3
Thank you to our Editors-in-Chief Dr. Michael Pollak and Dr. Matthew G. Vander Heiden for their hard work and to all those who support this journal.
Aims and scope
Cancer & Metabolism welcomes studies on all aspects of the relationship between cancer and metabolism, including:
- Molecular biology and genetics of cancer metabolism
- Whole-body metabolism, including diabetes and obesity, in relation to cancer
- Metabolomics in relation to cancer;
- Metabolism-based imaging
- Preclinical and clinical studies of metabolism-related cancer therapies.

Dietary influences on cancer biology: Separating the facts from the fluff
Amidst an abundance of dietary advice and claims, this Collection aims to critically examine scientific evidence surrounding the impact of diet on cancer biology.
Submission deadline: 31 May 2024
Role of transporters in metabolism
This Collection seeks to unravel the intricate connections between transporters and metabolism, and shed light on their regulatory mechanisms, impact on disease states, and potential as therapeutic targets.

Editorial Board
Dr. Michael Pollak, co-Editor-in-Chief
Dr. Pollak is an internationally recognized expert in cancer endocrinology at the Lady Davis Institute for Medical Research of McGill University and a clinical oncologist at the Jewish General Hospital, Quebec, Canada.
"Cancer & Metabolism will provide a forum for rapid dissemination of research findings concerning metabolic factors that influence cancer risk and cancer pathophysiology, and cancer treatment. The scope of the Journal will allow for an interdisciplinary readership including cancer biologists, endocrinologists, oncologists, clinical trialists and population scientists."
Dr. Matthew G. Vander Heiden, co-Editor-in-Chief
Dr. Vander Heiden is Associate Director at the Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research at MIT. Extensively published in over 140 peer reviewed articles and book chapters, his research interests focus on the metabolic processes of cancer cells, including how glucose metabolism affects tumor growth and how these studies may lead to new developments in targeted cancer therapy. A renowned innovative researcher in his field, Dr. Vander Heiden received the 2017 Philip A. Sharp Innovation in Collaboration Award from Stand Up to Cancer (SU2C).
Dr. Costas Lyssiotis, Deputy Editor
Dr. Lyssiotis is the Maisel Research Professor of Oncology and an Associate Professor of Physiology and Medicine at the University of Michigan. The Lyssiotis research group studies the biochemical pathways and metabolic requirements that enable tumor survival and growth. This work spans the areas of cancer metabolism, the tumor microenvironment, and immunometabolism using and developing protocols in mass spectrometry-based metabolomics. Dr. Lyssiotis has published >150 peer reviewed research papers, and as a reflection of the impact of his work, he has been recognized as a highly cited researcher (top 1% across sciences) by Web of Science.

Chi Van Dang, Editor Emeritus
Chi Dang is a professor, physician-researcher, renowned cancer biologist and hematologist-oncologist, who serves as director of the Abramson Cancer Center at the University of Pennsylvania.
"After several decades of profound advances in our understanding of the genetics and molecular biology of cancer, it has become self-evident that metabolism and bioenergetics are regulated by cancer genes and are intimately linked to the growth and survival of cancer cells. The obesity pandemic connected to increased cancer risk further underscore the importance of a richer understanding of cancer and organismal metabolism. In this regard, Cancer & Metabolism is launched uniquely to fulfill the needs of a burgeoning field which is at the crossroads of many scientific disciplines."
