About the Journal
PRESENTATION CONFLUENCIA MAGAZINE:
Revista Confluencia is an electronic publication whose purpose is to disseminate scientific knowledge in the field of health. Its objective is the publication of unpublished articles in Spanish in the field of health, whose elaboration emanates from the scientific production of students in the context of courses, workshops, clinical experiences, assistantships (among others), which can be presented in sections such as research (qualitative and quantitative), literature reviews, clinical cases, intervention programmes or projects, reflections and letters to the editor.
From 2023, Revista Confluencia includes the publication of student articles with optional co-authorship by academics, researchers, health professionals, authorities and public health managers. It is very important for us to ensure that students continue to be the protagonists of the journal, so the participation of professors or clinical tutors who participate in the publication will be open to their inclusion as last authors.
From the year 2024 Revista Confluencia takes on the challenge of continuous publication, which will reduce the time it takes to submit and publish articles.
