Journal Title: International Electronic Journal of Medicine - Year 2012, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
International Electronic Journal of Medicine (IEJM) is an open access electronic journal that covers all aspects of medicine and medical sciences. We invite authors from all over the world to send their manuscripts to IEJM. Manuscripts submitted to IEJM go through a peer review process before publication in IEJM. We will ask our reviewers to finish the papers’ review within two weeks. Authors are requested to prepare their manuscripts according to the instructions provided for the authors to facilitate the review process. Each paper will be reviewed at least by two external reviewers and the final decision is made by the Editor-in-Chief based on the reviewer's comments. IEJM considers publishing original papers, Review articles, Case Reports, Short Communications and Letters to the Editors. IEJM will add other formats to this list in future if it was necessary. IEJM will continue its way towards publication of high quality and high impact scientific papers in the field of medicine. Our journal readers also have the possibility of free access to the full texts of all published articles. We invite all who are interested to contribute to our journal to fill our reviewer application forms on the website and send it to us via email. We know our journal will not succeed without your help and contribution. Development of the internet has changed many aspects of medicine and medical sciences (1). Evidence-Based Medicine is based on accessing updated medical evidence and the possibility of their critical appraisal (2). Electronic and online journals are rapidly developing and will play an important role in the future of EBM. Although EBM isn’t enough for current practice of medicine, it is still one of the best ways of practicing medicine (3, 4). Electronic journals can help EBM by providing the access to online peer reviewed medical evidence. IEJM is committed to providing high quality, free online peer reviewed paper for researchers and physicians. We know we have a long way to achieve this goal, but we hope that with your contribution to IEJM, we will be able to accomplish this aim.
