It is a great pleasure to present this special issue of JIAMSE on the topic of Student Research projects. This issue looks at the value of the research that the two medical schools include in the medical curriculum toward an establishment of curiosity in the minds of medical students and future physicians. The abstracts indicate what the students are doing, while the articles provide a blueprint that medical schools around the world may choose to follow as curricula are revised. Enjoy.
