During this era when large number of journals are already being published, starting a new journal raises the eyebrows among the research community. Is it needed? Well, if we ponder, we shall see that most of the modern day journals are being published by big publishing houses, and usually are highly specified
Since research has become over-specialized and compartmentalized, so are the Journals. Nevertheless, needs for Institutional and multi-speciality journal shall always remain to share scientific development and communicate scientifically, wherein the stress is on knowing finer points to make the foundation stone of medicine more firm as the art of history taking and eliciting clinical signs is fading, in turn giving way to superficiality and no- touch technique of examining patients.
Medical education in India is generally deteriorating to no ends and with this feeling we felt the need for this journal to mend the void that is perceptable between the research being done and published. Before couple of decades; it used to take years to publish articles, though technology has changed the situation.
Presently, our faculty is involved in miRNA level research, targeting stem cells in cancer, biotechnological innovations and tissue culture based cancer intervention researches. Even a couple of patents have been obtained and next are under-way. With this vision, the first issue of our institutional based journal, Era’s Journal of Medical Research (EJMR) in association with American University of Barbados, was initiated.
The journal is published simultaneously in both print and online version. It contains exceptionally high quality review articles in the current fields of research on varied subjects. This journal publishes original research work and recent medical updates covering various specialties and subspecialties to enhance and upgrade the research work. It also helps to promote the interaction between the academician and researcher nationally and internationally. Our focus areas are Cancer Cell Therapy, Brain & Spinal Cord Injury, Neuro Degenerative Diseases, Lifestyle Medicine and Personalized Medicine.
