We welcome Original Research, Reviews, and Mini-Reviews on skin cancers, focusing on the following topics:
- Cancer stem cells
- Tumor microenvironment
- Mechanisms of cancer progression and metastasis
- Resistance to therapy
- Strategies for secondary prevention
- Biomarkers of progression
Submissions of descriptive studies, as well as case reports, are discouraged. Studies with a surgical or epidemiological focus should be submitted to the respective specialty sections.

Skin Cancer welcomes submissions of the following article types: Case Report, Clinical Trial, Editorial, Hypothesis and Theory, Mini Review, Original Research and Review.
All manuscripts must be submitted directly to the section Skin Cancer, where they are peer-reviewed by the Associate and Review Editors of the specialty section.
Articles published in the section Skin Cancer will benefit from the Frontiers impact and tiering system after online publication. Authors of published original research with the highest impact, as judged democratically by the readers, will be invited by the Chief Editor to write a Frontiers Focused Review - a tier-climbing article. This is referred to as "democratic tiering". The author selection is based on article impact analytics of original research published in all Frontiers specialty journals and sections. Focused Reviews are centered on the original discovery, place it into a broader context, and aim to address the wider community across all of Oncology.
