Background

Methods of Information in Medicine (Methods) is the “longest running journal devoted to information in biomedicine and health care.”[1] Since its foundation in 1962, Methods has stressed the methodology and scientific fundamentals of organizing, representing, and analyzing data, information, and knowledge in biomedicine and health care. Publications covered a broad spectrum in the fields of biomedical and health informatics, medical biometry, and epidemiology.

During the last decade, the field of biomedical and health informatics, including adjacent areas, such as eHealth and digital health, has been growing, and this is reflected in the establishment of several new journals. At the same time, we, as editors, have observed an increase in the number of submissions that are not fully within the scope of Methods, suggesting the need for improved communication of the journal's focus toward our community. We have therefore decided to limit the scope of the journal and to focus on methods in health informatics, thereby including clinical informatics, consumer health informatics, public health informatics, and clinical research informatics but excluding bioinformatics and imaging informatics.[2]

方法重新聚焦。

背景

医学信息方法(Methods)是“运行时间最长的致力于生物医学和卫生保健信息的期刊。” [1]自1962年成立以来,Methods一直强调组织,表示和分析数据的方法和科学基础,生物医学和保健方面的信息和知识。出版物涵盖了生物医学和健康信息学,医学生物统计学和流行病学领域的广泛领域。

在过去的十年中,生物医学和健康信息学领域(包括相邻领域,例如eHealth和数字健康)一直在增长,这反映在一些新期刊的建立上。同时,作为编辑,我们观察到提交的数量有所增加,但并不完全属于《方法》的范畴,这表明有必要加强期刊对我们社区的关注交流。因此,我们决定限制期刊的范围,并专注于健康信息学的方法,从而包括临床信息学,消费者健康信息学,公共卫生信息学和临床研究信息学,但不包括生物信息学和影像学信息学。[2]
