In October 2019, to mark the 50th anniversary of McMaster University’s Michael G. DeGroote School of Medicine, the McMaster Textbook of Internal Medicine will be made available in print for the first time, accompanied by the launch of mobile applications for iOS and Android.

The McMaster Textbook of Internal Medicine is the first comprehensive Canadian textbook of internal medicine developed at McMaster University. In 2016, the web-based version was released and has continued to expand since.
