Medical Science Educator 23(1S) - Now Available

Dear colleagues,

I am happy to present to you a supplement issue of Medical Science Educator, entirely dedicated to basic science research projects for medical students. In this issue we present 14 examples of scientific training programs in medical schools from around the world. It provides us a nice overview of different situations and different approaches to address scientific training. The issue also publishes several abstracts of the 2013 Leiden International Medical Student Conference, one of the biggest student conferences in Europe on biomedical research.

To download: http://www.iamse.org/jiamse/volume23-1s/23-1s_complete.pdf

I hope you will enjoy this issue and that you and your colleagues will consider publishing your own scholarly work in our Journal for the benefit of all our readers.
