Call for papers/Topics Topics of interest for submission include any topics on: 1. Foundations of Biological Sciences These topics provide the fundamental "building blocks" for both medicine and nursing. Molecular & Cell Biology: Signal transduction, organelle function, and cellular metabolism. Genetics & Genomics: Heredity, DNA sequencing, and the study of the human genome. Microbiology: Bacteriology, virology (emerging viral threats), and mycology. Human Anatomy & Physiology: Gross anatomy, histology, and systemic mechanics (e.g., cardiovascular, neuro, endocrine). Medical Biochemistry: Metabolic pathways, enzymology, and hormonal regulation. Immunology: Innate and adaptive immunity, and the biology of the immune response. 2. Clinical Medical Specialties Traditional "Doctor-led" fields that focus on the diagnosis and treatment of disease. Internal Medicine: Cardiology, Gastroenterology, Nephrology, and Pulmonology. Surgical Sciences: Perioperative care, minimally invasive surgery, and transplant medicine. Pediatrics & Neonatology: Childhood development, congenital disorders, and neonatal intensive care. Obstetrics & Gynecology (OB/GYN): Maternal-fetal medicine and reproductive health. Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences: Neurobiology of mental disorders and psychopharmacology. Oncology: Cancer biology, chemotherapy, and radiation physics. Emergency & Trauma Medicine: Advanced life support and disaster triage. 3. Core Nursing Science The "Art and Science" of patient care, focusing on human response to health and illness. Nursing Fundamentals: The Nursing Process (Assessment, Diagnosis, Planning, Implementation, Evaluation). Nursing Theories: Frameworks for care (e.g., Orem’s Self-Care, Watson’s Caring, Nightingale’s Environmental Theory). Community & Public Health Nursing: Epidemiology for nurses, health promotion, and rural health outreach. Nursing Leadership & Management: Ward management, healthcare economics, and staffing logistics. Specialized Nursing: Gerontological nursing, pediatric nursing, and critical care nursing. Nursing Informatics: Managing electronic health records (EHR) and digital patient data. 4. Interrelated & Interdisciplinary Fields (The 2026 Convergence) These topics represent where the three pillars overlap significantly. Pharmacology & Pharmacotherapeutics: * Bio: Drug-receptor interactions. Med: Prescribing protocols. Nursing: Safe administration and monitoring of side effects. Pathophysiology: The biological study of how disease alters physiological processes (critical for both diagnosing doctors and monitoring nurses). Evidence-Based Practice (EBP): Integrating biological research and clinical trials into bedside nursing and medical protocols. Precision & Personalized Medicine: Using a patient’s genetic profile (Bio) to select medical treatments (Med) which require specialized genomic nursing care. Bioethics & Medical Jurisprudence: Informed consent, end-of-life care, and the ethics of gene editing. One Health: The intersection of human health, animal health, and environmental biology. Palliative & End-of-Life Care: Medical symptom management combined with holistic nursing support. 5. Emerging Trends & Future Sciences Digital Health & AI: Algorithmic diagnostics, remote patient monitoring, and AI-assisted nursing. Microbiome Research: The role of gut bacteria in systemic disease and immunity. Regenerative Medicine: Stem cell therapy and tissue engineering. Health Literacy & Communication: Translating complex biological data into patient-friendly education. Global Health Security: Pandemic preparedness and infectious disease surveillance.
