AMA Citation Guide

Guide to using the American Medical Association citation and writing style.

Note

This guide is based on the AMA Manual of Style, 10th edition  from the American Medical Association. The contents are accurate to the best of our knowledge. Some examples may illustrate recommendations and are marked as modifications of the official AMA guidelines.

The new 11th edition includes a few changes such as the use of inclusive language and other grammatical updates, moving the DOI or URL to the end of a reference, and examples of references for new types of media.
