Ethical Consideration
The mission of the JIMS is to lead the debate on health and to engage, inform, and stimulate students, doctors and health care researchers to make better decisions and improve
outcomes for patients.
The JIMS is committed to ethical principles and transparency. We try to ensure that readers, authors, and editors are familiar with the background to each other’s work, to the extentpossible. We achieve this through policies such as open review, declaring competing interests, and clarifying the role of the bodies that fund research (when relevant).
There are many other policies and principles that help the JIMS be an ethical publisher. You can access the full policies simply by clicking on the link to the PDF file.
The JIMS’ policies will be updated from time to time, as needed.
