The magazine was born with the “purpose of having an organ that serves to publicize the scientific teaching and service work, related to the field of health, in its social biomedical aspect, produced by our faculty and also that of other faculties of Medicine from the country and abroad”, as indicated by Dr. César Torres Zamudio, Dean of the Alberto Hurtado Faculty of Medicine, in the editorial of the first issue.

Since 2019 it has only been published in digital format.
