JMIR Infodemiology

Aims & Scope

MIR Infodemiology launched in 2021, is a PubMed Central, PubMed, MEDLINE, Scopus, DOAJ, and CABI-indexed, peer-reviewed journal, focusing on determinants and the distribution of health information and misinformation on the internet, and its effect on public and individual health.

The new scientific discipline of "Infodemiology," first introduced in 2002, has been gaining momentum due to the COVID-19 infodemic, with the WHO recognizing it as an important pillar to manage public health emergencies.

JMIR Publications is proud to have been spearheading the advancement of this new scientific discipline for more than a decade.

We are now accelerating the development of this new interdisciplinary discipline with the first and only journal devoted to this rapidly evolving field, by bringing together thought leaders in research, data science, and policy.

Areas of interest include information monitoring (infoveillance, including social listening); ehealth literacy and science literacy; knowledge refinement and quality improvement processes and policies; and the influence of political and commercial interests on effective knowledge translation.
