| Abstract: | The Malta Medical Journal Club (MMJC) society aims at making research a focus for students’ academic experience and in their eventual practice as doctors. Through the MMJC meetings and now this Journal Update we intend to promote an environment where students are more research oriented. We hope that such an initiative will help upcoming students sprout interest and appreciate research. This will make way for progress in innovation and leadership thus placing Malta and its University at the forefront of research. |
