Publications in biomedical science follow a viciouscircle. The better the papers that are published in ajournal, the more they are cited, the higher the impactfactor of that journal will be, and thus the more at-tractive it is for authors of good papers to submit theirmanuscripts to that journal. Many members of ISCOare facing situations where impact factors of journalsin which they publish have a major influence on theirchances of successfully applying for research grants.In fact, this means that many of us not automaticallywill submit their manuscripts to a journal with an im-pact factor of 1.2, like Cellular Oncology. Despite this,the editor, associate editors and editorial board of Cel-lular Oncology have accepted the challenge to positionCellular Oncology as an attractive platform for pub-lishing scientific communications in the field of oncol-ogy. With the present issue we feel that we certainlyhave succeeded, and we want to stimulate you to helpus succeed in the future as well. One way of doing thisis by showing the ISCO members that Cellular Oncol-ogy papers, and in the past Analytical Cellular Pathol-ogy papers, have a potential of being cited quite well.To this end we here provide you with an overview ofthe most cited papers of the last five years, stratified byyear. This proves that publishing in Cellular Oncology,which is listed in Medline, certainly is an excellent op-tion to reach a large readership.
