You have the opportunity to be one of the founding authors in the inaugural issues of these new journals!

- iProceedings - publish your conference abstract/poster for free
- JMIRx Med - new journal, no APF/APC or submission fees. NEW (2020): If you published your submission on JMIR Preprints or a preprint server such as MedRxiv, and it was already peer-reviewed and possibly accepted by a JMIR journal, we can now offer transfer and rapid publication free of charge here (What is JMIRx?).
Please submit your paper to these journals only if they fit their scope, not because they are free. If you don't have funding and your paper does not fit the scope of any of the journals above, please consider other options as described in the article I don't have any grant money - how can I publish in JMIR?
