The journal strives to publish original research articles, review papers, case reports, and other relevant content that contribute to advancing medical knowledge and practice.

The Marshall Journal of Medicine is a peer-reviewed open-access medical journal covering a broad range of topics within the medical field, including but not limited to the following:

  • Clinical research: Investigations related to diagnosis, treatment, and management of diseases, as well as studies on new therapeutic approaches, clinical trials, and outcome assessments.
  • Basic science and translational research: Studies focusing on the underlying mechanisms of diseases, molecular biology, genetics, pharmacology, and their translation into clinical applications.
  • Public health and epidemiology: Research examining the distribution, determinants, and prevention of diseases at the population level, including studies on health policies, healthcare delivery systems, and disease surveillance.
  • Medical education and ethics: Articles exploring innovative teaching methods, curriculum development, medical ethics, professionalism, and the impact of educational interventions on patient care.
  • Healthcare technology and informatics: Research on the development and evaluation of medical devices, telemedicine, electronic health records, health informatics, and their impact on healthcare delivery and patient outcomes.
  • Global health: Studies addressing health disparities, healthcare access, and the impact of social, economic, and environmental factors on health outcomes, particularly in resource-limited settings.
  • Case reports and clinical observations: Descriptions of unique or rare cases, diagnostic challenges, innovative treatment approaches, and clinical experiences that contribute to medical knowledge and clinical practice.

By encompassing a wide range of topics, the Marshall Journal of Medicine aims to foster interdisciplinary collaboration, promote evidence-based medicine, and facilitate the exchange of ideas and insights among researchers, clinicians, educators, and policymakers.
