Scientific Note

 RESEARCH IN MEDICAL EDUCATION publishes brief notes to report information and observation for which replication is not possible or additional data cannot be easily obtained and which have an exceptional scientific interest. The authors must justify in the cover letter the appropriateness of presenting their data as a Scientific Note. The length of such notes will be strictly restricted to 3 pages (i.e about 9,000 characters, spaces excluded, if only text and references) and publication will depend on the availability of space in the journal and general interest to readers of  thejournal. This form is intended to augment scientific communication and is by no means for articles that are not of sufficient rigor to be published as full papers. All submissions must include ‘scientific note’ in the title.
