About the Journal

Founded in 2002, the Journal of Medical and Biological Sciences is edited by the Institute of Health Sciences of the Federal University of Bahia and aims to publish, every four months, the results of original research that may contribute to the development of scientific and technological knowledge in medical, bioethical and biological fields.

 

Based on the recommendation of the Editorial Board and/or ad hoc consultants, it publishes scientific works in Portuguese, English, French and Spanish relating to all areas of medical and biological knowledge and related areas, in the form of original articles, dissemination articles, review articles, clinical cases, conferences and reviews.

 

This journal offers immediate free access to its content, following the principle that making scientific knowledge freely available to the public provides greater global democratization of knowledge.

 

This journal uses the LOCKSS system to create a distributed archival system among participating libraries and allows them to create permanent journal archives for preservation and restoration.
