Journal policy
«Journal of Biomedical Technologies» is an interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed, open access scientific-practical online journal, which activity is aimed at the development of scientific cooperation, enhancing availability and exchange of accumulated knowledge and professional experience among scientific and educational institutions, healthcare organizations, and practitioners.
The Journal publishes articles in English and Russian languages in the fields of medicine and biology (Obstetrics and Gynecology, Anesthesiology and Reanimatology, Biotechnology, Biophysics, Genetics, Internal Diseases, Eye Diseases, Immunology, Radiation Therapy and Radiation Diagnostics, Mathematical Methods and Computer Technologies for medical and biological data analysis, Medical Biochemistry, Microbiology, Neurology, Oncology, Otolaryngology, Pediatrics, Pharmacology and Clinical Pharmacology, Physiology and Pathophysiology, Fundamental Medicine, Surgery, Human Ecology, etc.). The main article types are: analytical reviews, original research, methodical guidelines/recommendations, brief communications (case reports), comments/reviews, and letters to the Editor. The Journal does not publish summaries of facts.
In modern sense, biomedical technology is a complex process that includes the creation of fundamentally new biological objects and products that possess previously unknown or completely new properties and modalities of action on the human organism, aimed at achieving a specific diagnostic, therapeutic and/or prophylactic effect. In this context, the name of the Journal («Journal of Biomedical Technologies») comprises all modern areas of medicine and biology, where innovative technologies are worked out and, at a certain stage, introduced into clinical practice. In this regard, when preparing scientific articles, methodical guidelines, brief communications, and letters to the Editor, special attention should be focused on the description and the use (approbation) of innovative technologies, methods, procedures, and developments in fundamental and/or clinical research, the results of which are promising for a given medical or biological branch.
The manuscript will be published within 1 to 6 months from the date of its submission. The publication is free of charge. All content of the Journal is freely available without any charge to its users. It is allowed to read, download, copy, distribute, and print the full texts of the articles in this journal without asking prior permission from the publisher or the author.
