Special Issue in Cancers
We are pleased to announce that the special issue “Select Papers from 7th International Workshop on Plasma for Cancer Treatment – IWPCT 2020” will still be published with Cancers, an MDPI journal (IF: 6.162). We are excited that the special issue in Cancers will now be open to everyone as special issue “Advances in Plasma Oncology Towards Clinical Translation”. Please continue to submit your manuscripts to the special issue until January 31, 2021. Make sure to follow the journal’s guidelines for submission. For example, Cancers will not consider research performed with only one cell line. Details can be found on the journals homepage: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/cancers/special_issues/Workshop_Plasma
