Journal of Medical Humanities

The Journal of Medical Humanities is a peer-reviewed, scholarly journal that publishes innovative research, creative scholarship, poetry, essays, reviews, and short reports in the health humanities. Please see the list of “What We Publish” on the Journal Updates page for more information about specific genres for submission and information about their length and format. Submissions to JMH should be oriented toward health humanities as a scholarly field, aiming to engage central questions, dilemmas, challenges, and imaginative opportunities that the health humanities offer. Readers are trained in a variety of disciplines, so submissions should avoid field-specific jargon. Readers also expect scholarship that is inclusive and attentive to social justice issues and scholarship, broadly construed.
