Abstract
Complex health challenges require professionals to operate across disciplines and to better connect with society. Here, we showcase a community-engaged and challenge-based educational model in which undergraduate students conduct transdisciplinary research on authentic complex biomedical problems. This concept reinforces translational medicine, human capital, and exemplifies synergy between education, research, healthcare, and society.
期刊介绍:
Since its establishment in 1896, the Journal of Experimental Medicine (JEM) has steadfastly pursued the publication of enduring and exceptional studies in medical biology. In an era where numerous publishing groups are introducing specialized journals, we recognize the importance of offering a distinguished platform for studies that seamlessly integrate various disciplines within the pathogenesis field.
Our unique editorial system, driven by a commitment to exceptional author service, involves two collaborative groups of editors: professional editors with robust scientific backgrounds and full-time practicing scientists. Each paper undergoes evaluation by at least one editor from both groups before external review. Weekly editorial meetings facilitate comprehensive discussions on papers, incorporating external referee comments, and ensure swift decisions without unnecessary demands for extensive revisions.
Encompassing human studies and diverse in vivo experimental models of human disease, our focus within medical biology spans genetics, inflammation, immunity, infectious disease, cancer, vascular biology, metabolic disorders, neuroscience, and stem cell biology. We eagerly welcome reports ranging from atomic-level analyses to clinical interventions that unveil new mechanistic insights.
