The journal is edited by an editorial board of leading researchers in medical sciences and employs an independent peer review process, with an average review speed of 8 weeks from the initial point of submission until a final editorial decision.

JMMC is an open access free-of-charge journal which means that all contents are freely available without charge to the user or his/her institution. Users are allowed to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of the articles in this journal without asking prior permission from the publisher or the author. No fees are expected from authors.

One key request of researchers across the world is unrestricted access to research publications. Open access gives a worldwide audience larger than that of any subscription-based journal and thus increases the visibility and impact of published works. It also enhances indexing, retrieval power and eliminates the need for permissions to reproduce and distribute content.
