Ebonyi Medical Journal (EMJ)
Journal Descriptions
The Ebonyi Medical Journal is a peer‑reviewed academic medical journal based in Nigeria, indexed on African Journals Online (AJOL) and Scilit, and serves as a scholarly platform for researchers and clinicians to disseminate work in medicine and allied health fields. Its publications include studies on infectious diseases, maternal and child health, epidemiological research, clinical case series, health services research, and public health issues relevant to sub‑Saharan Africa. The journal’s first issue dates back to 2002, when Volume 1, Issue 1 was published with articles detailing clinical investigations and public health topics. Since then, it has continued to publish valuable research from clinicians and scientists primarily working in Nigerian health institutions and universities. Articles from later years (e.g., 2011 and beyond) show ongoing contributions in areas such as reproductive health, malaria control, maternal care, and diagnostic research relevant to the region. Although the exact editor‑in‑chief and publisher contact details are not broadly listed on public index pages, the journal is part of the AJOL collection of African‑published scholarly journals. Many articles list editorial contacts within their PDF full texts hosted on AJOL. Researchers often obtain author and editorial contact information through individual article pages on AJOL or by contacting AJOL support.
