OBJECTIVES
Clinical Medicine & Research is a peer reviewed publication presenting relevant, credible information that addresses topics of interest to a multi-specialty audience in medicine, preventive medicine, epidemiology, research, and basic science.

Clinical Medicine & Research will:

• Present a broad range of topics relevant to general practitioners in a rural setting who may be the only medical resource for their region and must be well versed in all areas of medicine.

• Serve as a resource for rural health research, interventions, education, and safety issues.

• Serve as a forum on non-clinical aspects of science, medicine, and public health, covering political, philosophical, ethical, environmental, historical, and cultural issues, as well as those issues of an economic nature.

• Provide readers access to multi-disciplinary sources for continuing medical education in basic and clinical sciences that enhance informed clinical decision-making.

EDITORIAL FREEDOM
Clinical Medicine & Research will openly publish both sides of controversial issues.

Clinical Medicine & Research will not publish unethical studies, whether they are controversial or not, and whether they were performed in a quality manner or not.
