In 2013, the journal title was changed as Journal of Integrative Medicine (JIM). Since 2013, JIM has been published in English language bimonthly. JIM is an interdisciplinary journal focusing on academic research and clinical studies in the field of integrative medicine. Headed by experienced and internationally recognized Editors-in-Chief and supported by a strong, internationally diverse team of editors, JIM looks to establish itself as an outstanding English language journal in its area of focus. We are committed to make JIM an international platform for publishing high-quality papers on complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) and an open forum in which the different professions and international scholarly communities can exchange views, share research and their clinical experience, discuss CAM education, and confer about issues and problems in our various disciplines and in CAM as a whole in order to promote integrative medicine.
