About

The National Open Journal of Medicine (NOJM) is a peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary journal that publishes original research articles, reviews and mini-reviews, letters, and guest-edited thematic issues across all areas of medicine. The journal evaluates submissions on the basis of scientific validity, methodological rigor, and adherence to high ethical standards rather than perceived novelty or impact. NOJM welcomes multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research, replication studies, and studies reporting negative or null findings. The journal also publishes Registered Reports and study Protocols.

  • Basic and translational medical research
