JMIR Medical Education "Students' Corner" invites submissions about medical education (e.g. experiences with medical education innovations or student-led innovations in medical education) from author teams composed of students and trainees from various health professions.
The student corner deals with medical education as a topic. It is not intended as a "catch-all" section for research articles or viewpoints written by students.
Article Processing Fee
There is currently no article processing fee for articles published in Students' Corner.
