The Journal of Biomedical Informatics has an open access mirror Journal of Biomedical Informatics: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.AIMS AND SCOPE: The Journal of Biomedical Informatics reflects a commitment to high-quality original research papers, reviews, and commentaries in the area of biomedical informatics methodology. Although we publish articles motivated by applications in the biomedical sciences (for example, clinical medicine, health care, population health, and translational bioinformatics), the journal emphasizes reports of new methodologies and techniques that have general applicability and that form the basis for the evolving science of biomedical informatics. Articles on medical devices; evaluations of implemented systems (including clinical trials of information technologies); or papers that provide insight into a biological process, a specific disease, or treatment options would generally be more suitable for publication in other venues. Papers on applications of signal processing and image analysis are often more suitable for biomedical engineering journals or other informatics journals, although we do publish papers that emphasize the information management and knowledge representation/modeling issues that arise in the storage and use of biological signals and images. System descriptions are welcome if they illustrate and substantiate the underlying methodology that is the principal focus of the report and an effort is made to address the generalizability and/or range of application of that methodology. Note also that, given the international nature of JBI, papers that deal with specific languages other than English, or with country-specific health systems or approaches, are acceptable for JBI only if they offer generalizable lessons that are relevant to the broad JBI readership, regardless of their country, language, culture, or health system.

《生物医学信息学杂志》具有开放访问权限的镜像《生物医学信息学杂志：X》，具有相同的目标和范围，编辑团队，提交系统和严格的同行评审。 目的和范围： 该杂志生物医学信息反映了对生物医学信息学方法论领域中高质量原创研究论文，评论和评论的承诺。尽管我们会根据生物医学科学领域（例如临床医学，卫生保健，人群健康和转化性生物信息学）的应用来发表文章，但该期刊强调的是具有普遍适用性的新方法和技术的报告，它们构成了不断发展的基础生物医学信息学。有关医疗器械的文章；对已实施系统的评估（包括信息技术的临床试验）；或提供对生物学过程，特定疾病或治疗选择有深入了解的论文，通常更适合在其他场所发表。关于信号处理和图像分析的应用的论文通常更适合于生物医学工程杂志或其他信息学杂志，尽管我们确实会发表强调信息管理和生物信号和图像的存储和使用中出现的知识管理/知识表示/建模问题的论文。 。如果系统说明能够说明和证实作为报告重点的基础方法论，并且努力解决该方法论的普遍性和/或适用范围，则欢迎使用系统描述。还应注意，鉴于JBI的国际性质，涉及除英语以外的特定语言或针对特定国家/地区的卫生系统或方法的论文，。
