About the Journal

JMIRx Med (ISSN 2563-6316), which has been accepted for indexing in PubMed and PubMed Central, is an innovative overlay journal to  MedRxiv and JMIR Preprints (other preprint servers are welcome) conceived to address the urgent need to make highly relevant scientific information available as early as possible without losing the quality of the peer-review process.. JMIRx peer-reviews preprints and publishes their revised "version of record" with peer-review reports across a broad range of medical, clinical, and related health sciences. Unlike the majority of JMIR journals, papers published in this journal do not require a digital health focus, but we publish all research that qualifies for preprinting on MedRxiv. 

All JMIRx Med papers are rigorously peer-reviewed, copyedited and XML-tagged. Accepted papers are published along with the related Peer Review Reports and Author Responses to Peer Review Reports, providing an additional layer of transparency to the scholarly publishing process. 

To submit a preprint to JMIRx, either submit a Preprint directly to JMIRx (and opt-in when you are asked to expose the submission on JMIR Preprints) or upload a Preprint to MedRxiv and then user the M2J (or here called M2JMIR) functionality at MedRxiv to submit the paper to the Journal of Medical Internet Research - you will then receive an email with a link to the JMIR submission form, where you must change the target journal to JMIRx.
