Medical News Bulletin is carefully curated by the editorial team. We search through newly published research papers, university press releases, the news, and social media for interesting and meaningful biomedical research and health news. Once we spot a story we think would be of use to our readers, the editors contact our expert team of volunteer science writers.
We will assign the story to one of our writers who will read the sources, and research the context and background of the research or event. We read the original research articles, government reports, primary sources, and, whenever we can, hunt down specialists to give us their perspectives on the findings. Our authors carefully interpret the science and translate it into terms that we hope will allow our readers to make sense of the findings.
Once an author returns an initial draft, the editorial team will get to work fact-checking and helping the writers craft their story into its best version. Some stories will go through many revisions. We perform plagiarism checks and we do our best to substantiate citations. Getting the facts right and making the evidence for a conclusion accessible is at the core of our mission.
We do not accept unsolicited articles. On occasion our writers will pitch a story, they have an interest in. These stories are treated the same as our assigned articles, being fact-checked, revised, corrected, and validated by the editorial team. Articles that do not meet our editorial standards are not published.
