This year saw BMC Cancer turn ten.  When the journal published its first volume
of 20 articles in 2001 it was one of only a handful of open access titles
operating in the field and was exclusively run by a small team of in-house
editors.  A decade later, the journal’s
in-house team is supported by an international group of Section Editors, Deputy
Section Editors, Associate Editors and Editorial Advisers numbering in the
hundreds and has published nearly 3,000 articles.

To mark the end of its 10th year, BMC Cancer is publishing a
special anniversary collection of commissioned articles.  With contributions from Carlos Caldas, Ian Cree, Shoukat Dedhar and many others,
the collection highlights the advances in the field over the past 10 years and
looks forward to the developments that we might expect to see in the next
decade.

Congratulations to BMC Cancer for reaching this milestone
and here’s to the next 10 years.
