The Sri Lanka Journal of Perinatal Medicine (SLJPM) was launched in 2019 as the official journal of the Perinatal Society of Sri Lanka. This journal is unique in the fact that it brings together three core specialties of perinatal medicine - obstetrics, neonatology and community medicine. It is an open access peer reviewed journal containing original research articles, expert reviews, current practices and other articles of interest to all involved in perinatal medicine.
