Breast Cancer Risk Factors
Breast Cancer Research is presenting our Retrospective Collection on "Breast Cancer Risk Factors." Celebrating 'Breast Cancer Awareness Month (1 October- 31 October)', with this Collection, we aim to gain valuable insights into the multifaceted aspects of breast cancer risk to promote awareness, prevention, and early detection.
Aims and scope
Breast Cancer Research is an international, peer-reviewed online journal, publishing original research, reviews, editorials and reports. Open access research articles of exceptional interest are published in all areas of biology and medicine relevant to breast cancer, including normal mammary gland biology, with special emphasis on the genetic, biochemical, and cellular basis of breast cancer. In addition to basic research, the journal publishes preclinical, translational and clinical studies with a biological basis, including Phase I and Phase II trials.

Featured Review - Artificial intelligence in mammographic phenotyping of breast cancer risk: a narrative review
In this review, we provide a useful reference for AI researchers investigating image-based breast cancer risk assessment while indicating key priorities and challenges that, if properly addressed, could accelerate the implementation of AI-assisted risk stratification to future refine and individualize breast cancer screening strategies.
