Research and Scientific writing by medical students is being increasingly acknowledged all over the world. AMSA International with its vision of Knowledge, Action and Friendship, wants to encourage all forms of research and creative work from medical students. JAMSA is a platform for young and budding researchers from Asia-Pacific and beyond who are just beginning their careers in the medical and scientific fields.
Scope
The main objective of JAMSA is to serve as a portal by documenting the research activities. We encourage all forms of scientific writing including Original Research articles, Review Articles, Case Reports, feature articles, letters to the editor etc. If you are interested in submitting your research article please go through the Author Guidelines and Submission Guidelines under the Submission section of our website.
The journal accepts scientific articles authored by medical students including but not limited to the member countries of AMSA International. Scientific articles related to all the disciplines of medicine, public health or health care management and those articles having impact on health in any form will be accepted. However, the editorial board reserves the right to deny publication of any article if it deems so. One of our priorities is to keep the article processing time to a minimum. Our online submission and article processing system has been tailored to fulfill this objective. Preference will be given to original articles with structured methodology.

EAMSC 2025 Abstract Book
The 46th East Asian Medical Students’ Conference (EAMSC) will be held in Egypt from January 15th to 19th, 2025, with the theme of “Climate Change, Global Warming, and Human Health: Impacts, Vulnerability, and Public Health.” This theme is particularly relevant in today’s world, as the effects of climate change become increasingly apparent and severe. The conference aims to address the pressing issue of global warming, driven by rising greenhouse gas concentrations, and its significant impacts on human health.
Climate change is no longer just an environmental concern; it is a growing health crisis. The conference will delve into how rising temperatures, changing weather patterns, and extreme weather events are affecting human health across the globe. This includes the rise of heat-related illnesses, the spread of vector-borne diseases to new regions, deteriorating air quality leading to respiratory issues, increased water scarcity and waterborne diseases, and food insecurity and malnutrition. These issues are particularly acute in vulnerable populations, but they pose a threat to everyone.
Drawing on Egypt's unique position at the crossroads of Africa and Asia, the conference seeks to foster international collaboration across the Asia-Pacific region and beyond. EAMSC 2025 will serve as a platform for medical students to examine responses to climate change at personal, local, national, and global levels. It will also explore the morbidity, mortality, public health impacts, and mental health repercussions associated with climate change. By prioritizing medical practitioners with the knowledge and tools needed to address these challenges. Through these articulated objectives, EAMSC 2025 endeavors to raise awareness, deliberate on pertinent issues, and explore viable solutions, preparing future medical practitioners to confront the health impacts of climate change and work towards a sustainable and healthier future for all
