posted on April 25: New student publication launched

A motivated group of first-year McMaster students united with a vision to create a unique learning experience in the field of medicine and health.

The result was the birth of the Meducator, McMaster's Medical Research and Health Ethics Student Publication.

To foster learning in the field, the student organization assembled writers to research medical and health ethics topics, connected them with McMaster researchers for personal interviews whenever possible, subjected the articles for review by post-graduates, and published the finished content in a free publication available around the McMaster campus and on the www.meducator.org web site.

As an opportunity to further the educational value of the initiative, readers (students, faculty and staff) are invited to participate in on-topic discussions on the website, where cross-referencing and collaboration can take place.

The first issue of the Meducator, launched on April 5, discusses current issues in regards to medical research and health ethics. The Meducator is an MSU organisation and welcomes new writers and researchers with open arms.

The publication is a great venue to voice an informative outlook in the arena of medicine and science. The purpose is to inform the McMaster populace on current trends and hot topics that confront medical doctors, researchers, and scientists.

The Meducator intends to be a new source of fascinating medical information that will interest the entire McMaster community.

Free copies of the Meducator are available (on a limited basis) at the following locations:

Hamilton Hall (near the Information Centre and the main entrance)

Burke Science Building (Near main entrance)

Bachelor of Health Science Honours Programme Office (At office counter
