Bahrain Medical Bulletin

Aims & Scope

The Bahrain Medical Bulletin is an international independent peer-reviewed journal published by the Editorial Board.

It was first published in June 1979; therefore, it became the second medical journal in the Arabian Gulf.

We have grown from a local journal publishing articles from Bahrain to international media publishing works from the Arabian Gulf, the Middle East and many parts of the world.

The Bulletin is published by an independent Editorial Board made up of highly qualified and dedicated medical professionals with varied backgrounds, both clinical and academic.

The Board is committed to maintain the integrity of the published record and to publish the most objective and unbiased scientific information.

Our mission is to encourage, promote and advance biomedical and health sciences and to provide a medium for local and regional high quality work to be disseminated internationally.
