Any student in the natural and health sciences faculty are eligible to submit an article into the tsmj. There is no application fee and students from discipline outside of medicine are encouraged to submit articles.
We publish articles relating to many aspects of medicine including scientific research and clinical experience. Candidates are welcome to choose any topic of their liking and write an essay, case studies, review articles or research.
No previous writing experience is necessary. TSMJ provides submission guidelines which must be adhered to.
All published articles are decided by a panel of editors drawn from the medical student body of Trinity College Dublin. All submissions are chosen by a double blind method, with all identifiers removed from submission until final selection by the editorial committee is completed.
Prizes awarded at the conference last year were Dean’s Gold medal for article of the year, GlaxosmithKline merit award winner, Leo Pharma merit award winner.
TSMJ scholarship is sponsored by the….. and is to reward excellence in extra curricular activities. All students of medicine are eligible to apply.
As the TSMJ is a free journal, maximum amount of support from sponsors are needed. If you know of anyone interested in sponsoring TSMJ, please contact our Sponsorship Department
