It is with great satisfaction that we present the sixth issue of Eä- Journal of Medical Humanities & Social Studies of Science and Technology, Vol. 2 Nº 3 – April 2011. New issue's table of contents is available at http://www.ea-journal.com/en/current-issue.

What’s new?: EäBlog.

Vol. 2 Nº 3 is presented with a novelty: since this issue we have launched EäBlog, a new space that emerged from the need to contribute to the social circulation of knowledge that is discovered by researchers all over the world in the disciplines that are located in the intersection between Health, Society, Science and Technology.

EäBlog, avaliable at http://blog.ea-journal.com, is a new space related to Eä – Journal of Medical Humanities & Social Studies of Science and Technology -but at the same time differentiated from it- with a blog layout. This project is conceived under one of the main purposes of our publication: to foster the utilization of the new Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and social networks on the development of the Medical Humanities and the Social Studies of Science and Technology. To learn more about EäBlog: http://blos.ea-journal.com

Call for papers. Deadline: May 18

CFP for Eä will remain open until May 18, 2011. Information for authors is -as always- available on our website at http://www.ea-journal.com/en/information-for-authors, and any further questions you can contact us to submit@ea-journal.com.
