University of Buckingham Press (UBP) is delighted to announce the launch of the Journal of Medical Education Research (JMER) to be published in conjunction with the University of Buckingham Medical School. The first Issue is scheduled to be launched mid-2021.
With medical research currently at the forefront of international focus as a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic and medical education constantly evolving, the JMER will have a special focus on curriculum design and implementation, evaluation, assessments, professionalism, and evidence-based medicine.
JMER will be available on an Open Access basis to allow all readers access to its content and has appointed Dr Bharathy Kumaravel, Public Health Theme Lead and Senior Clinical Lecturer at University of Buckingham Medical School, as Chief Editor.
