Journal of Medical Internet Research (JMIR)

The "Journal of Medical Internet Research" (JMIR; Medline-abbreviation: J Med Internet Res), founded in 1999, was the first (and remains the only) international scientific peer-reviewed journal on all aspects of research, information and communication in the healthcare field using Internet and other eHealth technologies [see also What is eHealth and What is eHealth (2)]. This field has also significant overlaps with what is called "consumer health informatics.". As the field evolves, despite having "Internet" in its title, the journal also publishes original research on development, evaluation, and application of other (non-Internet) cutting-edge e-technologies in the health care setting.
We are different from other medical informatics journals in that we are targeting a broad readership consisting of health professionals, policy makers, consumers, health informaticians, developers, researchers, hospital and health care administrators, and e-health businesses, rather than reaching only a small medical informatics community.
