Management of Editorial Standards and Content Quality

Our editorial quality management is based on 3 pillars:

  • Only the best authors: Our authors only include doctors and senior medical students. All new authors undergo a stringent selection procedure by writing sample articles, which are peer-reviewed by our most experienced authors and our editorial board.
  • Extensive briefings and research: We do not aim to write medical articles dealing with aspects that are only relevant to patients. To maintain focus on the needs of medical students as well as on our goal of being a reliable source, we consider extensive briefings and research as the starting point of each new article. This process includes defining relevant aspects regarding the corresponding curriculum as well as providing images and photo material.
  • Peer review and conscientious content-related and technical copyediting: Our final quality management is based on dual control. The initial peer review by senior authors and doctors ensures the accuracy of the article’s content and ascertains the coverage of all exam-relevant aspects of the topic. The peer reviewer further verifies the reliability of the primary sources. The second step involves technical copyediting, wherein our editors proofread the article with great attention to detail and enter it into our content management system. Relevant tables, diagrams, and lists are included at this point.
