Open Access Cancer research Journals
A list of Open Access Cancer research journals for you to publish your manuscript in
Cancer research is research into cancer to identify causes and develop strategies for prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and cure
A journal article is 'open access' when there are no financial, legal or technical barriers to accessing it - that is to say when anyone can read, download, distribute, print, and search it.
Hopefully this list of Cancer research Open Access journals will make it easier for you to decide where to publish your Cancer research manuscript.
We made this list which includes all the high-impact factor Cancer research journals that might be relevant to your field of study.Instead of displaying the most commonly known Cancer research journals, we have made an exhaustive list of open accesss Cancer research journals. Use our different columns — number of papers, number of citations, and relevance — to find the best Cancer research venue for your manuscript.
The DOAJ columns refers to the The Directory of Open Access Journals, a list of open access journals, maintained by Infrastructure Services for Open Access.
There are certain criteria a journal must meet to be indexed by DOAJ, and thus inclusion in the DOAJ index is seen by scholars as a mark of quality.
All the open access Cancer research journals in this list are indexed in OA.mg.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I publish my Cancer research paper?
You can publish your Cancer research paper in the Open Access journals in this list
What is Open Access (OA)?
Open Access is the free online access of research articles coupled with the rights to use and distribute these articles fully in the digital environment.
What does “relevance” mean in the table?
In the table above, relevance is used to determine the level of association between a journal and the concept it is listed under, from 0-100.
How do you count total number of citations?
The citations represent the times that works have cited papers under this journal. In our case, we obtain this data from OpenAlex, an open catalog of scholarly papers. It's hard to say how accurate it is but it can give you a general idea on how prestigious the journal is. The more work that have cited it, the better.
Where can I find other lists like this one?
If you are looking for an author or journal article, you can type it in the name, title, or DOI in the search box above to see more results. If you want to see a similar list to this one, take a look on OA.mg

That's exactly why we made these lists, so you can find a journal that will publish your paper. We at OA.mg don't offer publishing services.
What is an APC?
An APC is the article processing charge that an author of a given research paper has to pay in order to get it published in a journal. APCs are most commonly used by open access journals or by journals who offer open access publishing.
What are the different Open Access types?
Although there are Gold, Green, Hybrid, Bronze, Diamond, and Black Open Access licenses, here are the most common ones:
