International Journal of Medical Students

About the Journal

The International Journal of Medical Students (IJMS) is a non-profit and a peer-reviewed open-access journal (ISSN 2076-6327) created to share the scientific production and experiences of medical students and recently graduated physicians worldwide. Our objective is to be the primary diffusion platform for medical students, using standards that follow the process of scientific publication.

The Journal receives contributions and unpublished manuscripts of Original Articles, Short Communications, Reviews, Case Reports, Interviews, Experiences, and Letters, which are reviewed by experts (Peer-Reviewers). This supports the quality and validity of the publications.

The IJMS is published online quarterly by the University Library System, University of Pittsburgh as part of its Pitt Open Library Publishing imprint. The Journal's main office is located in the United States of America (USA). Any publication, dissemination, or distribution of the information included in the Journal is permitted if the source is cited (Int J Med Students).

This journal provides immediate open access to its content. Our Open Access follows a “diamond model”; the Journal is free to both readers and authors, there are no article processing charges, submissions fees, or any other costs required of authors to submit, review, or publish articles.
