Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues，
In the current healthcare panorama, lymphology is increasingly establishing itself as a discipline with numerous applications in every field of medicine; despite this, even today, with the continuous progress of science, it remains the prerogative of only a few specialists to the detriment of thousands of patients who suffer and often wait years before receiving a diagnosis and starting therapy.
This Special Issue of the International Journal of Molecular Sciences will focus on underlining the importance of the lymphatic system and its related diseases in all of its molecular declinations and clinical implications, and how these impact daily healthcare activities.
It is therefore hoped that this idea will push researchers and doctors who deal with this discipline to share their experiences and shed light on the countless twists and turns of a multidimensional labyrinth such as lymphology.
Since IJMS is a journal of molecular science, pure clinical studies will not suitable for our journal; however, clinical or pure model submissions with biomolecular experiments are welcomed.
Dr. Laura Patton
Guest Editor
