The stated objectives of the "BLDE University Journal of Health Sciences" encompass advances in fundamental and applied science, and the clinical, social, and ethical issues involved. The journal intends to report on drug discovery from the laboratory bench to their introduction into healthcare, and in so doing, it will support interaction between scientists and doctors. Educational resources will also play a central role in translating laboratory findings into the clinic, and clinical research will support and inform the scientists in their objective to confront and conquer the major healthcare problems of this century.
