Thank you for visiting Cell 2 Soul. We hope you find content that resonates with and expands your view of humane medical treatment, thought, and experience. Our focus on the humanities aims to expand the concept of a medical journal and makes it more broadly accessible.
We hope you find ideas that empower you to pursue new options as you proceed on your own path, whether as medical professional, patient or patient's family member. Perhaps a selection will present you with an "aha!" about something with which you've been grappling. And just maybe, one of our stories will provide a spark for you to add your own voice to our offerings.
We seek quality stories, narratives, poems, and other offerings, whether serious or light-hearted. Cell 2 Soul is a supportive place to get your work published. If you think you have a story to tell, send it to submissions~AT~cell2soul·org. Please read the author instructions page for submission guidelines.
Cell 2 Soul is funded only by donations and voluntary subscriptions. We take no drug company or advertising money and are committed to maintaining this policy. If you like what we do, and want to help us keep doing it, please visit the subscriptions/donations page. Thank you for your support.
