title: The Journal of Cancer Survivorship: retrospective and future directions.
abstract: This editorial provides an up-to-date breakdown of the topics accepted for publication in the Journal of Cancer Survivorship: Research and Practice. The paper also indicates priority problem areas that require attention now and in the future. I also want to take this opportunity to announce that the application for the journal to receive an impact rating as of 2012 was approved. This completes two major milestones (indexing by the National Institute of Medicine and calculation of the journal's scientific impact as of 2012). Now it is up to the scientific and health care communities to help further ensure the journal's position as a major resource for information on cancer survivorship. We seek your help in making this a reality.
