BMC Surgery proves to be a popular source of material for Medscape’s Continuing Medical Education Program

BMC SurgeryThe advantages of open access publishing for educational purposes are demonstrated by the success of BMC Surgery as a source of articles for Medscape’s free online Continuing Medical Education (CME) material.

Four articles from the journal have already been featured by Medscape for CME. Readers of BMC Surgery articles can now build on their CME activities via Medscape’s ACCME-accredited CME material.  BMC Surgery is an excellent choice for researchers who want their clinically relevant research to reach practicing clinicians, but this open access journal has also proven to be an exceptionally good source of educational material.

BMC Psychiatry and BMC Family Practice also feature in Medscape’s CME activities.  We aim to expand our relationship with Medscape further to include clinically relevant articles from a broad range of BioMed Central Journals. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, BMC Neurology, BMC Cardiovascular Disorders and BMC Infectious Diseases  will be sources of CME from the medical BMC series journals in the coming months with plans to include many more BioMed Central journals in the future.
