The aim of this journal is to help readers understand expert views on current advances in the field of bladder dysfunction by systematically providing review articles that highlight the most important papers recently published.

We accomplish this aim by appointing major authorities in key subject areas across the discipline to select topics reviewed by leading experts who emphasize recent developments, novel research, and highlight important papers published over the past year on their topics. We also highlight areas that have not received attention in the past and are important to an international audience, such a voiding dysfunction in reconstructed bladders and voiding dysfunction associated with genitourinary infections. An Editorial Board of internationally diverse members also suggests topics of special interest to their country/region and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research.

This journal aims to review the most important, recently published clinical findings related to the diagnosis, treatment, management, and prevention of breast cancer. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts, the journal intends to serve all those involved in the care of those with the disease.

We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as prevention, systemic therapy, and translational research. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided. 

Current Cancer Drug Targets aims to cover all the latest and outstanding developments on the medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, molecular biology, genomics and biochemistry of contemporary molecular drug targets involved in cancer, e.g. disease specific proteins, receptors, enzymes and genes.
