PM&R

The journal of injury, function
and rehabilitation

PM&R will be the official scientific journal of AAPM&R beginning in 2009

The Academy is proud to announce the launch of PM&R – a new monthly, scientific, peer-reviewed journal created specifically for the physical medicine and rehabilitation physician.

The Academy’s goal is to advance education and impact the specialty through the timely delivery of clinically relevant and evidence-based research and review information. Topics will include acute and chronic musculoskeletal disorders and pain, neurologic conditions involving the central and peripheral nervous systems, rehabilitation of impairments associated with disabilities in adults and children, and neurophysiology and electrodiagnosis. PM&R will emphasize principles of injury, function, and rehabilitation, and is designed to be relevant to practitioners and researchers in a variety of medical and surgical specialties and rehabilitation disciplines.

PM&R will also include:

• CME credit in each issue

• The Academy’s popular Study Guide and Self Assessment Examination supplement

Look for the first issue of PM&R when it launches in January 2009 and becomes the Academy’s new official scientific journal. PM&R will be replacing Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation as a free benefit of Academy membership.
