About the Journal

In 2023, to support the continued growth of the annual MHM International Symposium, we launched the Journal of Medicine, Humanity and Media as its official peer-reviewed publication. Regarding its title, the journal does not purport to cover the full spectrum of medical, humanities and media studies. Rather, it focuses on human-centered health communication research and is committed to serving as an interdisciplinary, international scholarly platform that nurtures emerging scholars and facilitates intellectual exchange.
