Wiley Open Access Manuscript Transfer Program

Editor Referral
Cancer Medicine is supported by other journals published by Wiley including a number of society-owned journals. After review in a supporting Wiley journal, rejected articles of suitable quality can be identified by the Editor as candidates for publication in Cancer Medicine. Authors will have the option to automatically transfer their manuscript to Cancer Medicine and complete the submission process. The Cancer Medicine editors will then undertake further evaluation. Importantly, authors will not need to make any changes to their manuscript at this stage. Authors should note that referees’ comments are transferred to the editor of Cancer Medicine along with the manuscript. The Cancer Medicine editors will take the previous reviews into account when making their decision, although in some cases the editors may choose to take advice from additional referees.

Wiley Transfer Desk Assistant

Alternatively, if an Editor referral isn’t available, Wiley’s Transfer Desk Assistant (TDA) uses machine-learning to analyze your manuscript to identify up to 8 suitable Wiley journals that are good matches for your research. Within one day of the initial decision letter, you will receive an email detailing the recommended journals and instructions on how to initiate a transfer.
