Our Chair Lode Godderis and Prof. Dr. Jukka Takala are organizing a Special Issue for the *International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health*, an open access peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes articles and communications in the interdisciplinary area of environmental health sciences and public health. This journal has an Impact Factor of 2.145 (2017) and a Five-Year Impact Factor of 2.608 (2017). For detailed information on the journal, we refer you to http://www.mdpi.com/journal/ijerph.
Lode thinks this could be interesting to share among the Modernet network.
Title: Occupational Cancer: From Early Detection to Prevention
Website: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/ijerph/special_issues/occupational_cancer_detection
Submission Deadline: 31 October 2019
Work contributes significantly to the burden of cancer. Because of the latent nature, it remains difficult to determine the occupational causes and clinically diagnose work-related cancers. Consequently, it often takes decades between the introduction of a substance in the market, the reporting of the first suspected cases, research findings, and finally legal restriction or banning. In this Special Issue, we welcome original and review papers on the relationship between occupational exposures and cancer.
We would like to invite the Modernet members to submit a paper to the special issue. Authors may send us your manuscript now or up until the deadline and the editorial team will arrange prompt peer review. We also encourage authors to send a short abstract and tentative title to the Editorial Office in advance (bonnie.wang@mdpi.com).
Manuscripts should be submitted through the online editorial system at http://susy.mdpi.com. Authors need to choose IJERPH as the journal title and then *Occupational Cancer: From Early Detection to Prevention* as the special issue title. For further details on the submission process, please see the instructions for authors at the journal’s website: http://www.mdpi.com/journal/ijerph/instructions.
