About this journal

Journal of Perinatal Medicine: Happy 50th Anniversary
The Journal of Perinatal Medicine (JPM) is celebrating its 50th anniversary. The first issue was published in January 1973, making it the first scientific journal in the field of perinatal medicine. JPM was founded by Erich Saling of Berlin (Germany), the father of perinatal medicine, and Roberto Caldeyro Barcia of Uruguay, an expert in uterine contractility, Edward Hon from the USA, who pioneered electronic heart rate monitoring of the fetus, and Stanley James, one of the most outstanding neonatologists. Over the past 50 years, JPM has grown with the increasing number of annual submissions and readers, as well as increasing impact within the scientific community.
Enjoy reading the Special Anniversary Issue we published on the occasion of JPM's milestone birthday!
