The Quest for Free Access to Medical Information
Reading medical articles aid the medical practitioners including medical students to keep abreast with the latest developments in medicine. Although there have been numerous publications about these latest development, not most of us can afford to purchase an access, especially medical students like me. A single medical journal may cost you 20$ or plus. Sometimes, it’s just so frustrating to be redirected to an article, very related to your search, but you need to have a subscription to read the full text.
The Amedeo Challenge aims to provide the public with free full access to medical journals and books over the next few years.
Before the end of this decade, medical publishing will undergo a profound transformation. The Internet will provide us with an unprecedented wealth of state-of-the-art medical information. The ready availability of this information will have a tremendous impact on medical practice.
They encourage book authors, especially doctors and researchers to join this challenge and share their works to the public.
