Ethics
The CMJ's editorial team is committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in research and authorship. We are dedicated to ensuring that all published material meets stringent requirements for accuracy, integrity, and objectivity. We take seriously our responsibility to protect the rights of patients and participants whose data is used in research, as well as researchers whose work is eligible for publication. All manuscripts are evaluated by knowledgeable peer reviewers with the utmost respect for intellectual property rights. The editorial staff also provides support and advice on good research practices to authors and readers alike. In addition, we strive to maintain a safe environment for scholarly debate and open dialogue between researchers of all backgrounds. At Canadian Medical Journals, we believe editors should maintain high standards of professionalism while simultaneously upholding ethical duties as healthcare community members.
Value Promise
The Canadian Medical Journals Editor Team (CMJET) has a rigorous review process for all submissions. This includes a detailed evaluation of the submitted manuscript, ensuring that it meets the standards set forth by the CMJET. After this initial assessment, the submission is subject to peer review, where independent experts in the same field evaluate its quality and originality. The editor-in-chief then makes a final decision on the acceptance or rejection of the paper after considering the feedback from reviewers and other members of CMJET. Accepted papers are published online with open access so they can be accessed freely by readers worldwide. The goal of this process is to ensure that only high-quality work is quickly disseminated, helping to advance scientific understanding.
