Dr. Mikhail (Misha) Blagosklonny and Dr. Andrei Gudkov are the two founding Editors-in-Chief of Oncotarget. They both have a history of producing some of the finest medical research. Dr. Gudkov is focusing on developing and applying new technologies for functional gene discovery, which will lead to designing new therapeutic approaches to cancer treatment. Dr. Blagosklonny, well-known for his expertise in cancer and aging research. He has published dozens of experimental and theoretical papers that encompassed two important subjects: selective killing cancer cells with deregulated cell cycle or drug resistance by exploiting their resistance and the hyperfunction (or quasi-programmed) theory of aging. In its turn, this theory helped to rediscover Rapamycin as a well-tolerated anti-aging drug.
