The Postgraduate Medical Journal was launched in 1925
in the era of the discovery of insulin and penicillin, pioneering examples of
development and introduction of life-saving and life-changing medicines during
the latter three-quarters of the 20th Century.
A Symposium is being organised on 1st October 2015 in London by the Fellowship of Postgraduate Medicine to mark the 90th Anniversary of its first official journal, the Postgraduate Medical Journal.
Speakers
include Peter Ashman, Publishing Director at BMJ, who will discuss the future for publishing medical journals.
As in the 1920s when the PMJ was launched, medical journals continue to be used by
established clinicians to keep up-to-date on clinical practice, by trainees for new learning, and by clinical and other researchers to find out about new and previous research and to describe and disseminate the results of their own research. Key new challenges for publishers, editors, authors and readers include matching the desire for with the need to fund Open Access to what has been published, and how to make the most of opportunities for innovation presented by new electronic media, both in established health care systems and in low resource settings.

BIOPRINTING: Have to say very clearly to the religious, once and for all, that we are not interested in their religious stories for ignorant, nor their "ethical debates" about anything (they would have to debate whether is it ethical that children perish of hunger in the Third World deliberately maintained, because without poor and ignorant there is not religion, while pontifices living in golden palaces eating partridges, they would have to debate whether is it ethical that all global media are secretly under the tight religious (Inquisition) control to continue "forever and ever" buying-fooling-terrorizing the World on behalf of their sanguinary false gods). We do not want more religion stories nevermore. What we do want with the BIOPRINTING techniques is to get THE IMMORTALITY, period. Future New Humanism (wheat)...religion (darnel).
