June Eberharter died two months before this history was published. She had been managing editor for two AACR journals, Clinical Cancer Research and Molecular Cancer Research, and previously worked at most of the major publishing houses in the Philadelphia area — a mentor and teacher to a generation of editors. In her 13 years at the AACR, she applied her considerable editorial skills toward conquering the disease that ultimately took her life. This publication is dedicated to June.

    2021 AACR PUBLICATIONS MEDIA KIT AACRJournals.org TRUSTED AND TIMELY PUBLICATION OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES Founded in 1907, the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) is the first and largest scientific organization in the world focused on every aspect of high-quality, innovative cancer research. For over a century, our mission has always been to prevent and cure cancer through research, education, communication, and collaboration. The AACR currently publishes nine peer-reviewed journals that cover the full spectrum of cancer research. In 2020, we added Blood Cancer Discovery, broadening our highly esteemed portfolio’s scope to include all research on hematologic malignancies. The AACR Journals’ reputation for scientific breadth and excellence continues to attract the premier researchers in the field. We are proud to note that four of the AACR journals rank in the top 25 of all oncology journals in terms of Impact Factor, and while AACR publishes around 4.5% of the articles in the Oncology category, our journals garnered 14% of all citations in the field in 2019, according to Clarivate Analytics’ 2019 Journal Citation Reports® (Clarivate Analytics 2020). Cancer Discovery received an Impact Factor of 29.497 and ranks 6th overall in the Oncology category, while Clinical Cancer Research, Cancer Research, and Cancer Immunology Research rank 17th, 19th, and 23rd out of 244 journals in the Oncology category, respectively.
