A journal dedicated to the full breadth of medical and health science scholarship — from clinical theory and biomedical research to health policy and the transformation of medicine through technology.
Journal of Medical Theory and Technology is published by Airela Press as a peer-reviewed journal. We publish original research, clinical studies, systematic reviews, theoretical essays, and case reports spanning all areas of medicine and the health sciences.
We welcome contributions from clinicians, biomedical scientists, public health researchers, health educators, medical ethicists, and policy scholars. Interdisciplinary submissions that cross the boundaries of medicine, technology, social science, and the humanities are particularly encouraged.
Our scope is broad by design: wherever rigorous scholarship advances understanding of health, disease, care, or the medical sciences, it belongs here.
Philosophy of medicine, medical ethics, history of medicine, theoretical frameworks in clinical science, and the conceptual foundations of health and disease.
Clinical research, patient care, epidemiology, public health interventions, health systems, nursing and allied health, medical education, and health policy.
Medical technology, AI in healthcare, digital health, precision medicine, biomedical engineering, telemedicine, and the ethical dimensions of healthcare innovation.
We invite submissions from clinicians, researchers, and health scholars whose work advances understanding of medicine, health, clinical practice, or biomedical science.
Manuscripts should be submitted by email with the subject line "Submission — [Paper Title]". Please attach your manuscript as a PDF or Word document.
