Why should medical students read PLoS Medicine?
PLoS Medicine brings the best medical research in all disciplines to medical students throughout the world, and explain what it means for professionals and patients. Students can find a unique, global perspective on current medical debates, and analyses of vital health issues, including social medicine, neglected diseases, and key controversies. PLoS Medicine helps students keep up to date with important areas of research, policy, and practice, and gain a broader understanding of health care. The Learning Forum section provides case-based learning materials. We also publish a section written by students—Student Forum. The journal will actively engage medical students from all over the world without subjecting them to drug advertising or other unnecessary marketing.
