A new report highlights the different areas in the field of melanoma research, showing that immunotherapy is the most prominent topic and reveals the countries that are driving this research.

The study, “Melanoma Research Insights: Impact, Trends, Opportunities”, released during Skin Cancer Awareness Month by information analytics business Elsevier, maps and analyses academic melanoma research globally between 2013-2018.

Findings in the report highlight that melanoma research accounted for 4-5 percent of all cancer research output globally over the past two decades, with just under 50,000 melanoma research papers published between 2013 and 2018, suggesting more investigations can be conducted.
