Focus and Scope

The primary goal of the journal is to increase student participation in research and writing, while offering an interesting product for the Dalhousie medical community. In the past the journal has primarily published the work of Dalhousie medical students and residents. However, we encourage submissions from members of all allied health profession at any level of training.

We are also very open considering submissions from individuals based at intuitions outside of the Dalhousie community. We invite you to browse our latest issue and consider sending manuscripts or humanities pieces to dmj@dal.ca.
