About

Annals of Ibadan Postgraduate Medicine (AIPM) was primarily borne out of concern that most resident doctors in the country did not attach adequate importance to research and publications during their training as residents.

The ultimate objective was to create an opportunity for resident doctors to be groomed in the art of scientific writing and publications, a task that would continually be required of them after their specialist training, especially if they practice in academic institutions.

This enviable challenge became a burden, and it was the lot of this writer to birth and coordinate efforts to nurture the journal for the first few years of its existence.
