Use when targeting Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology or deciding whether a clinical-oncology review or perspective fits this invited-review venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the commissioned-review and authoritative-synthesis bar, scope and house style, the topic-proposal route, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics. Venue-fit aid only, not clinical advice.

# Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology (nature-reviews-clinical-oncology) ## Journal positioning Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology is a Nature Reviews journal publishing authoritative, largely **commissioned and invited** review and perspective articles in clinical oncology — synthesizing the state of evidence across systemic therapy, immuno-oncology, precision medicine, supportive and survivorship care, and cancer-care delivery for a broad oncology readership. It is **not a primary-research venue**: it does not publish original trials, original cohorts, or new datasets, and unsolicited primary-data manuscripts are a top desk-reject. The defining expectation is a balanced, forward- looking, expert synthesis that frames where a field stands and where it is going, with clinical decision relevance — typically arising from an editor-commissioned topic or an accepted pre-submission proposal. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** aid; it is not clinical or regulatory advice and does not replace the journal's current instructions for authors. Before submitting or proposing, re-check the live Nature Reviews Clinical Oncology author instructions. ## When to trigger - The author

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill nature-reviews-clinical-oncology --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
