About
Earlier this summer, AAMDSIF called for research proposals addressing Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH). Robert A. Brodsky, MD, is the Johns Hopkins Family Professor of Medicine and Oncology and Director of the Division of Adult Hematology. He has a long track record of funded research through the NIH and through foundation grants, and serves as the Director of the Johns Hopkins Hematology Fellowship program, as well as the PI for the Johns Hopkins T32 in hematology and co-PI of a K12 in benign hematology. His focus on PNH and interest in translational medicine led his laboratory to
“Mom, it’s too late. I’m dying.”

We said that he did. He also was coughing and seemed lethargic. We encouraged him to go to the doctor, but he said he was fine.
Types of Research Articles Part I
This article describes some of the most common types of research articles published in medical journals. Medical journals publish many types of articles not discussed here. A comprehensive list is available from the National Library of Medicine.
Research articles can be primary or secondary. A primary research article describes the design, methods, and results of a study. A secondary research article is a review of at least two primary research articles.
