Manuscript
State the question, methods, results, and limits clearly
Make the scientific contribution and the connection to JCGB’s scope easy to assess from the submitted manuscript.
Journal of Cancer Genetics and Biomarkers
Submit a Manuscript
Submit through one complete manuscript record when your study makes a clear cancer-genetics, genomic, molecular-oncology, or biomarker contribution and is ready for independent peer review.
Check fit before you start
Clear scope decisions protect authors’ time and help the journal route manuscripts to appropriate editorial assessment.
Good fit
Molecularly anchored cancer research
The study has a central genetic, genomic, molecular, or biomarker question and presents evidence that supports its conclusions.
Conditional fit
Clinical or translational studies
Clinical relevance is welcome when a molecular, genomic, or biomarker component is integral to the study rather than an add-on.
Not the intended fit
Clinical management alone
Work focused only on treatment protocols, routine diagnosis, or outcomes without that scientific dimension should be directed to a more suitable journal.
Prepare one complete record
Use the Author Instructions as the source for final submission requirements and prepare the information needed for a rigorous editorial assessment.
Declarations
Provide required research information
Include ethics, funding, competing-interest, authorship, and data-availability information where it applies to the work.
Supporting files
Provide the material needed to evaluate the study
Use the Author Instructions to prepare figures, tables, reporting information, and any supplementary files relevant to the manuscript type.
What happens after submission
The sequence describes the editorial process; timing and the final outcome depend on the manuscript and review record.
- 01 · Initial assessment
Editorial screening
The journal assesses scope, completeness, and whether the manuscript can enter editorial consideration.
- 02 · Independent review
Peer-review process
Manuscripts sent for review are assessed under the journal’s single-blind model; double-blind review may be requested.
- 03 · Editorial decision
Evidence-based outcome
The decision follows the editorial assessment and review record. Submission, payment, or use of an outside service does not guarantee acceptance.
Publication cost, stated before submission
JCGB’s stated article processing charge is USD 2,199 for an accepted article, published under CC BY 4.0. Review the Article Processing Charges page before starting if funding needs to be considered.
