    About Academia Medicine

    • Fast publishing in the field of medicine

      Our goal is for peer review, the editorial process, and publication to happen within four weeks of submission.

    • Robust peer review and editorial process

      Each paper will be peer reviewed by two scientists working in the field of the paper. A member of Academia Medicine's Editorial Board will oversee the peer review process.

    • Broad and accurate dissemination

      Each paper published in Academia Medicine will be distributed to the relevant people within Academia’s global network of 224 million people.

    • Discussion, engagement, & community exchange

      After publishing a paper, authors can increase the impact of their paper by engaging with questions about the paper from scientists in Academia’s community.

    Aims & Scope

    Academia Medicine is an innovative open access journal that publishes cutting-edge basic, clinical, and translational research encompassing the most recent advances at the forefront of medical science. The editors welcome interdisciplinary submissions from all health-related fields, including clinical research, translational and precision medicine, and connections between human health and the environment. By engaging the Academia.edu community, the global team of Academia Medicine editors will provide authors with rapid and robust single-blind peer review feedback prior to publication.

    The journal will apply for indexing and will be disseminated using services requested by the community.

    Our mission is to accelerate the world's research.

    Our mission to accelerate the world's research.

    Following the success of Academia Letters—our former online platform for publishing and sharing short-form research articles, including orphaned findings and case studies—Academia.edu is launching a suite of open access journals for the global research community. Our journals will open up new avenues for disseminating research results and ensuring that the most recent findings are freely available to all.

    Each journal will mobilize its global research community to drive debate and conversation around submitted research. The conversation will be led by an authoritative Editor-in-Chief, who will work alongside a global team of editors. This editorial team will facilitate industry leading, rapid and robust single-blind peer review by engaging the extensive Academia.edu audience.

    Praise for Academia.edu Publishing

    left quotation marks

    Publishing with Academia Letters was great. I had this short essay and I couldn’t set the time aside to work on it. This is a great opportunity–it will go out there and people will read it.

    Academia Letters has the potential to become a great hit, and a great mover of science towards faster, more open, and more progressive ways of scholarship.

    Richard Price

    founder and ceo


    I founded Academia.edu when I was at Oxford, finishing my doctorate in the philosophy of perception. I conceived of Academia as a global platform where academics could connect and share research.

    Today 237 million people have joined Academia globally, and researchers have uploaded 47 million papers to their profiles.

    Two of Academia's values are speed and openness. We want to ensure that a paper is routed from author to reader as quickly as possible; and we want every paper, ever written, on the internet, available for free.

    The academic publishing process has historically been slow and closed. My first paper took 3 years to come out: from submission to publication. The average time from submission to publication is ~12 months.

    Our goal with our journal, Academia Medicine, and our future journals, is to create journals that are fast, open, and robust.

    Fast means 4 week turnaround times: peer review, editorial, and publication completed in four weeks from the time of submission.

    Open means that the journals will be open access: papers will be free to read, and authors will pay an article processing charge at the time of publication.

    Robust means that we will use our AI technologies to identify the most relevant reviewers from the Academia network for any given paper. We will ask at least two relevant peer reviewers to review a paper before the paper is published. The peer review process will be overseen by the Editorial Board of senior scientists.

    With Academia Medicine, and future Academia journals, we intend to introduce a new era of fast, open and robust academic publishing.

    Sincerely,

    D.Phil, University of Oxford
