Research in medical education is the critical and systematic study of teaching and learning in medicine. It’s a developing field with an increasing number of researchers and publications. In Brazil, the Brazilian Journal of Medical Education (RBEM) is the main journal in the area. The present study describes Brazilian scientific production in medical education by analyzing papers published by the RBEM from 2006 to 2010. In this period, the number of articles increased by 117.6%, averaging 60.4 articles per year. There was also an increase in the proportion of new research studies. The Southeast region and public institutions account for the greatest share of the articles. The most frequent keywords were “medical education”, “medical students” and “curriculum”. The growth of the RBEM reflects the development of research in medical education in Brazil and is in keeping with the logic of national scientific production.
