Journal of Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology (JAYAO)

When it comes to cancer, there is growing acknowledgement that adolescents and young adults present unique needs and issues. Clinical, supportive care, and survivorship issues in this age group show that what applies to pediatric and older patients does not always provide optimum care to this distinct population.

Journal of Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology (JAYAO) breaks new ground as the first cancer journal dedicated to the adolescent and young adult-aged oncology population. JAYAO is the only central forum for peer-reviewed articles, reviews, and research in the field, bringing together all AYA oncology stakeholders and professionals across disciplines, including clinicians, researchers, psychosocial and supportive care providers, and pediatric and adult cancer institutions.

JAYAO covers multidisciplinary issues specific to AYA cancer patients and survivors.
