Scientific writing is a core competency that is trained from early on in most subjects and usually culminates in a qualification thesis. This training includes essential skills like literature searching, structuring a scientific work, reading and evaluating research methods and findings, and presenting one's own research. By the time Master's degree holders enter the academic field, they are often well-prepared for academic work. The importance of rigorous scientific training from an early stage cannot be overstated, as the main mode of scientific communication remains the publication of findings in specialized journals. Guidance on writing scientific publications is available, and scientific proficiency is often gained through practice. The Student Medical Journal is offering a platform for early-stage students to present their work to the scientific community and serve as a critical experience for students embarking on academia.
