Quoting Frontiers-Medicine’s post:
“Call for Papers: Transition of Care in Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Oncology.
We’re excited to announce that the Research Topic ‘Transition of Care in Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology: Global Models, Survivorship, and Equity’ is now open for submissions in Frontiers in Adolescent Medicine!
Led by Prof. Ruzanna Papyan, Prof. Melissa Hudson, Prof. Catherine G. Lam, and Dr. Gabriela Villanueva, this collection aims to address a critical gap in cancer care. As young patients transition from pediatric to adult healthcare systems, they face unique medical, psychosocial, and organizational challenges.
We’re actively seeking original research, clinical trials, reviews, and perspective pieces that explore:
- Global Models of Care: Innovative clinical pathways, transition frameworks, and healthcare policy comparisons.
- Survivorship Support: Long-term follow-up models, late-effects management, and survivorship care plans.
- Psychosocial Outcomes: Mental health support, quality of life, peer support, and patient-reported outcomes.
- Equity and Access: Disparities in care, systemic barriers, and global equity challenges in AYA oncology.
Whether you’re a clinician, researcher, or policymaker, we invite you to contribute your work to this high-impact collection and help shape the future of AYA oncology care.”
