The aim of the journal is to present the studies conducted at the Akdeniz Faculty of Medicine and in Turkey in the fields of health sciences and related areas to the national and international science environment and contribute to their announcement and sharing and therefore to the promotion of Turkey in this context.

In line with these objectives, the articles containing original research (basic, clinical and epidemiologic) are preferred for publication in the Akdeniz Medical Journal. Editor reviews, collected studies, case presentations, letters to the editor, technical notes, articles on medical education, articles on medical history, and biographical articles are also accepted. The submitted work should not have been previously published as hard copy or in electronic format or currently sent to another journal or electronic media to be published. Using articles published in Turkish journals as references is especially preferred.
The Akdeniz Medical Journal that has previously been published as hard copy has now become an electronic journal and the ISSN number that used to be 1300-1779 has therefore now been changed to 2687-2781.
The publishing language of the Journal is Turkish and English. Care should be taken to protect the integrity of the Turkish language in Turkish articles and the current edition of the Spelling Guidelines and Turkish Dictionary of the Turkish Language Institution should be used as the basis. Care should be taken to use “Turkish Science Terminology” as much as possible in the use of medical terms. The authors can use the “Medicine Terminology Guide” of the Turkish Language Institution and other Medical Terminology Dictionaries.
