Journal of Medical Thesis (JMT)

Journal Of medical Thesis has been a demand generated Journal. Every year more than six to seven thousand medical thesis are been written, However very few (less than 10%) see the light of publication. The Journal of Medical Thesis aims to provide a solution for this issue and also have added advantage for the students and the teachers who have invested both time and effort into the thesis. JMT will be an online, peer reviewed, quarterly Journal which will publish thesis in a format of scientific paper and also make the thesis online for easy Citation.

 Medical thesis is one the most important document and mostly our first exposure to research. A lot of them do not get published in mainstream journals, as authors feel it is not good enough or there are lacunae or there are issues with the designing of the study. However all thesis do involve collection of data which has potential to answer a question. Even if the thesis has a small learning point or a small practical or statistical point to make, we feel it is worth publishing. We feel an independent Journal of Medical Thesis will have following advantages

1. The Student and teacher will get the credit and citation for their work
2. This will also lead to wide dispersion of the authors work
3. Sharing of this knowledge will also justify the co-operation of your patients and fulfill an important      Ethical requirement.
4. With thesis being published online, the amount of plagiarism will automatically decrease and will lead to generation of better thesis in future
5. With peer review process of the journal the validity of the thesis will be further enhanced
6. The journal will be indexed with all major Indexing bodies, with improved citations for the authors.
7. Will allow immortalizing the first research work of all medical students across the globe and faculties.
