We are honored to have Prof Sun joining our editorial team. We are also glad to proclaim to you that the Chinese Journal of Cancer Research (CJCR; Print ISSN: 1000-9604; Online ISSN: 1993-0631; www.thecjcr.org) has been indexed in PubMed and PubMed Central (PMC) since August, 2012. All papers published in and after Vol 24, No 1 (March 2012) can be searched in PubMed around the end of December, 2012. The current status of its PubMed Coverage is announced (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nlmcatalog/9315242).

Readers should have noticed that the current issue of CJCR (https://www.thecjcr.org/issue/view/65) appears exceptionally large. The publication of more articles and pages compared with past issues was intentional and temporary, to eliminate a backlog of accepted manuscripts. From 2013 onwards, the frequency of CJCR will be modified from quarterly to bimonthly. Such a decision was made according to the increasing number of submitted papers and improving awareness of this journal among colleagues. Believably, the higher publication frequency can pose additional burdens on the editorial team and board members. But diehards are often hard to die – we will manage.
