We are very pleased to announce the addition of a new journal to our website.

The Tanzanian Health Research Bulletin is published twice a year as an organ of the Health User's Trust Fund (HRUTF), whose mission is to promote in Tanzania the Essential National Health Research Initiative, and in particular demand driven health research. All issues are available on an open access (freely accessible) basis. Volume 8, No. 2 and No. 3 (2006) are online now, and more issues will be added in the near future.

We encourage you to look at this journal, and send us your feedback.
