About the Journal

Agromaritime Medicine Journal (AMJ) is a peer-reviewed, open-access scholarly journal dedicated to advancing knowledge at the intersection of biomedical sciences, medicine, clinical nutrition and therapeutics, environmental health, and One Health. Rooted in the identity of the Faculty of Medicine and Nutrition (FKGiz), IPB University, as a bioscience- and Agromaritime-based institution, AMJ provides a platform for research that addresses human health holistically, from upstream determinants such as nutrition, environment, and Agromaritime ecosystems to downstream clinical and public health management. AMJ particularly welcomes research addressing Indonesia’s pressing health priorities, including cancer, maternal and child health, infectious diseases, and non-communicable diseases in community and Agromaritime settings.
