Meet the Editor-in-Chief
Dr. Lewis A. Chodosh is a physician-scientist who received a BS in Molecular Biophysics
and Biochemistry from Yale University, and MD from Harvard Medical School, and a PhD. in
Biochemistry from M.I.T. in the laboratory of Dr. Phillip Sharp. He performed his clinical
training in Internal Medicine and Endocrinology at the Massachusetts General Hospital, after
which he was a postdoctoral research fellow with Dr. Philip Leder at Harvard Medical
School. Dr. Chodosh joined the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania in 1994, where he is
currently a Professor in the Departments of Cancer Biology, Cell & Developmental Biology, and
Medicine. He serves as Chairman of the Department of Cancer Biology, Associate Director for
Basic Science of the Abramson Cancer Center, and Director of Cancer Genetics for the
Abramson Family Cancer Research Institute at the University of Pennsylvania. Additionally,
he is on the scientific advisory board for the Harvard Nurses' Health Studies I and II.
Dr. Chodosh's research focuses on genetic, genomic and molecular approaches to understanding
breast cancer susceptibility and pathogenesis.
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: Breast cancer brain metastases
In this review, Witzel et al. summarize the biology of breast cancer that has spread into the brain
and discuss the implications for current and potential future treatment strategies.

FEATURED THEMATIC SERIES - Lobular Breast Cancer
This special series takes a translational view of lobular breast cancer, from bedside to bench and
back. The second most common breast cancer subtype, lobular breast cancer displays many
unique molecular and clinical properties. Leaders in the field explore the molecular biology,
pathology, risk factors, imaging, treatment and prognosis of this breast cancer.
