Next, data, background and analysis of several outstanding academic editions in the bioethical field were shared, such as the Journal of Medicine and Ethics of the Universidad Anáhuac México; the Medical Gazette of Mexico, of the National Academy of Medicine of Mexico; Bioethics UPdate of the Universidad Panamericana and Anales Médicos of the ABC Hospital, among others.
The forum also included a keynote speech by Dr. Raúl Carrillo Esper, who addressed the emerging role of artificial intelligence in the edition of academic journals, offering an innovative approach on how this technology can transform publishing in this area.
The event culminated with a colloquium entitled "The Work of Universities and Bioethics Journals", where prominent figures in the bioethics field, such as Dr. Raúl Jiménez Pita, Dr. Gustavo Ortiz Millán and Dr. Stephanie Derive, shared their perspectives on the role of academic and publishing institutions in the promotion of bioethics.
