The Amsterdam Medical Student journal, founded in 2014, is set up with the aim to inspire students into the world of scientific research and wanting to make scientific research more accessible by introducing students to the publication process. We do not only provide the publication opportunity to students, but we also give students the chance to participate in journal clubs, symposia or workshops with themes surrounding scientific research.
Our journal gets published four times a year. Various groups make these publications possible: the General board, the Editorial board and the editors.
Our General Board
The General Board is responsible for the organization of AMSj and also ultimately responsible for the AMSj itself. The board consists of 5 members, who work together to achieve annual goals of the AMSj.
Our Editorial Board
Our Editorial Board is responsible for the content of our journal.
