About Medical Xpress
Medical Xpress is a premier web-based medical and health news service and a core member of the Science X network — one of the largest online communities for science-minded people, reaching over 10 million readers every month across all its sites.
History
Medical Xpress evolved from the highly regarded medical research channel on Phys.org, which launched in April 2011.

All articles are hand-curated by qualified editors, ensuring that readers receive accurate, well-contextualized reporting on the latest advances in medicine and biomedical science — free from the pitfalls of automated feed aggregation.
