Volume 56

This is the introduction to the Welsh Paediatric Journal. You will be able to:

submit articles to the Journal online
find various documents to help you write your article
find deadline dates for submissions
WPS members are able to search for, print or email pdf articles from the archived Journals. This archiving has been an ongoing project so we thank you for being patient with us while we conducted the archiving. Formatting has changed over the years, so our next task is to ensure uniformity of the formatting.

Aims of the WPJ:

Promote paediatrics within and outside Wales
Information sharing about clinical networks, research activity and education
Publish original research, case reports, audit summaries and clinical reviews from paediatricians
Promote paediatric training and education for the undergraduate students and postgraduate clinicians
Report on scientific meetings and publish the abstracts from the WPS meetings twice a year
Publish reports from the WPSU
Develop and maintain the paediatric community and act as a voice for Welsh paediatricians

The Welsh Paediatric Journal (WPJ) / Cylchrawn Pediatrig Cymru (CPC) is the publication of the Welsh Paediatric Society. The journal is published bi-annually; in the Spring and in the Autumn, and is distributed to members and honorary fellows of the society, postgraduate libraries throughout Wales, Libraries of Departments of Child Health in British Medical Schools, and to the British Library.

The WPJ publishes original articles, clinical and research reviews, short reports, audits, editorials, education and training matters, reports from officers of the society, letters to the editor and proceedings of the bi-annual scientific meetings of the Welsh Paediatric Society. Topics of interest include all subjects that relate to clinical practice and research and education in paediatrics and child health. Articles are welcome from colleagues working with and for children in all areas of healthcare. Although the journal’s main mission is to provide a forum for the publication of articles from within Wales, to offer a shop window of all that is good in paediatrics and child health in Wales, we welcome also articles from a widespread authorship outside Wales. It also provides opportunities for paediatricians in training (and also medical students) to have original work, case reports and audit articles published to help them develop their curriculum vitae.
