The Changing Face of Medical Education in Egypt; Introducing the First Issue of “The Egyptian Journal of Medical Education”.

On behalf of the Editorial Board, I am delighted to announce the publication of the inaugural issue of The Egyptian Journal of Medical Education (EJME), a new online, international, open-access, peer-reviewed, journal on all aspects of undergraduate, postgraduate and continuing Medical Education.EJME seeks to be a venue by which educators across all disciplines can publish methods, reports, and reviews on all areas of medical education, being basic science or clinically related. New concepts and curriculum design changes are encouraged to be published. New ideas to engage and assess students in active learning, team-based learning and problem-based learning are encouraged to be presented. Clinical curriculum changes are also vital to the advancement of medical education and with respect to this, we encourage publication of articles related to new offerings of clinical clerkships, models of patient simulation, and related methods with which students learn more effectively.
