La Revista de Medicina y Cine como facilitador de publicaciones científicas de los estudiantes

Abstract

The Journal of Medicine and Movies was always open to publish articles by students of health sciences and other degrees. Encouraging the participation of students was always one of the pretensions of the journal. The objective of this article is to describe the participation of students in the journal informing of the number of articles published, the number of authors, the type of work carried out, the universities of origin, the commented films and the topics discussed. All articles published since 2005, at the beginning of the magazine, until 2019 were reviewed. 42 articles were registered with the participation of students (16,9 % of total) with 60 authors from 12 different universities and 10 different degrees, six of them from health sciences. It is concluded that the Journal of Medicine and Movies, in addition to being a means to promote learning in health science studies, can facilitate to the students the development of the generic competence to produce scientific articles.
