Narrative Pre-Health Journal

We are excited to announce that we are now accepting submissions for Volume 8 of the Narrative Pre Health Journal!

Our journal is centered around narrative medicine, a field of research and philosophy of care which highlights the experiential, personal, and human aspects of healthcare that are often forgotten in a science focused discipline. With a selection of expressive pieces from talented undergraduates, our journal explores experiences, reflections, and research relating to the medical humanities and narrative medicine. We welcome submissions from all students, regardless of background, to bring thoughtful and varied perspectives to this volume.

Submissions are diverse and include both visual arts and written work. Visual pieces may include photography, paintings, digital art, drawings, or crafts. Written pieces may include creative and autobiographical narratives, expository essays, letters, reflections, and poetry. Previous pieces have explored themes of empathy, bioethics, personal illness, death and life, healing, and human (or non-human) aspects of the medical environment. This list is certainly not exhaustive; more information on submission guidelines, as well as pdf’s of our previous journals, can be found on our website: nphj.wordpress.com

The deadline for submissions is January 10th; if you need assistance with the writing or editing process, please reach out to us at [email protected]. We have an enthusiastic team of editors who would love to help!

The submission form can be found in our Linktree in our bio.
