The British Medical Journal (BMJ) is an international, peer reviewed medical journal and a fully “online first” publication.
Articles that appear on the website are published online before being included in an issue of the print version of the journal. The website is updated daily with the BMJ’s latest original research, education, news, and comment articles, as well as podcasts, videos, and blogs.
All the BMJ’s original research is published in full on www.bmj.com, with open access and no limits on word counts. The BMJ’s vision is to be the world’s most influential and widely read medical journal. Its mission is to lead the debate on health and to engage, inform, and stimulate doctors, researchers, and other health professionals in ways that will improve outcomes for patients. Their aim is to help doctors to make better decisions.
