There is no dearth of journals published around the world. Many standard journals
are published from the Indian subcontinent itself. However, JCDR is unique and aimed
at being very different. The editor-in-chief felt challenged when he worked in a
western setup after spending almost a decade in the Indian private sector. He realised
that although physicians in developing countries witness a range of disease spectrums,
and acquire a wealth of knowledge because of high clinical exposure, they do not
publish their experiences. As a result, medical practitioners in developing countries
are often rendered speechless while discussing in an international forum. Lack of
motivation, lack of time and a busy schedule prevent these practitioners from publishing
their findings. Many feel strongly motivated to express and narrate their opinion,
but to write the same most lose the motivation. The lack of scientific writing skills
among young researchers and postgraduate students leads to failure of their research
thesis reaching any journal of repute.
We aim to use this journal to publish the findings of doctors working at the ground
level and that of young researchers. Very soon, we will provide commentaries from
senior experienced physicians. The first step will involve helping physicians and
researchers to draft and write articles. We will make constructive changes to the
original draft submitted. For authors whose second language is English, we will
provide English editorial services as well.
Although this journal has been started in India, we believe such needs exist with
many researchers in various countries and openly welcome original articles and case
reports from around the world. We promise to provide similar unbiased service to
every one who wishes to use our services.
