Thank you for your kind interest in Interdisciplinary Medicine. Submissions have to consist of content that has not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere except those as the brief abstracts in the proceedings of conferences or symposiums.
All submissions will be handled and processed using the ScholarOne online submission system. Once you have prepared your submission in accordance with the Guidelines, manuscripts should be submitted online at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/imedicine.
A cover letter should be uploaded in the ‘Cover Letter Field’ of the ScholarOne system. The text can be entered directly into the field or uploaded as a file.
The cover letter must contain:
A statement confirming the paper has not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere except as a brief abstract in the proceedings of a scientific meeting or symposium.
An acknowledgment that all authors have contributed significantly; and in keeping with the latest guidelines of the International Committee of the Journal Editors, each author’s contribution to the paper is to be described, i.e., what role each author participated in.
A statement confirming that all authors are in agreement with the content of the manuscript.
In addition, authors should clearly state the motivation behind and the novelty of their research in the cover letter. Authors should also clarify key results and the advances made compared with their previous work.
Interdisciplinary Medicine now offers Free Format submission for a simplified and streamlined submission process for New Submissions.
Before you submit, you will need:
Your manuscript: this should be an editable file including text, figures, and tables, or separate files—whichever you prefer. All required sections should be contained in your manuscript, including abstract, introduction, methods, results, and conclusions. Figures and tables should have legends. Figures should be uploaded in the highest resolution possible. References may be submitted in any style or format, as long as it is consistent throughout the manuscript. Supporting information should be submitted in separate files. If the manuscript, figures or tables are difficult for you to read, they will also be difficult for the editors and reviewers, and the editorial office will send it back to you for revision. Your manuscript may also be sent back to you for revision if the quality of English language is poor.
