《生物醫(yī)學(xué)信息學(xué)雜志》(前身為《計(jì)算機(jī)與生物醫(yī)學(xué)研究》)已重新設(shè)計(jì)，以反映對(duì)生物醫(yī)學(xué)信息學(xué)領(lǐng)域高質(zhì)量原創(chuàng)研究論文和評(píng)論的承諾。盡管發(fā)表的文章的動(dòng)機(jī)是在生物醫(yī)學(xué)科學(xué)的應(yīng)用(例如，臨床醫(yī)學(xué)、衛(wèi)生保健、人口健康、成像和生物信息學(xué))，該雜志強(qiáng)調(diào)新方法和技術(shù)的報(bào)告，具有普遍適用性，并形成了生物醫(yī)學(xué)信息學(xué)發(fā)展的基礎(chǔ)。關(guān)于醫(yī)療設(shè)備的文章和對(duì)已完成系統(tǒng)的正式評(píng)價(jià)，包括信息技術(shù)的臨床試驗(yàn)，一般更適合在其他地點(diǎn)發(fā)表。如果系統(tǒng)描述能夠說明和證實(shí)作為報(bào)告主要焦點(diǎn)的基本方法，則系統(tǒng)描述是受歡迎的。

The Journal of Biomedical Informatics (formerly Computers and Biomedical Research) has been redesigned to reflect a commitment to high-quality original research papers and reviews in the area of biomedical informatics. Although published articles are motivated by applications in the biomedical sciences (for example, clinical medicine, health care, population health, imaging, and bioinformatics), the journal emphasizes reports of new methodologies and techniques that have general applicability and that form the basis for the evolving science of biomedical informatics. Articles on medical devices, and formal evaluations of completed systems, including clinical trials of information technologies, would generally be more suitable for publication in other venues. System descriptions are welcome if they illustrate and substantiate the underlying methodology that is the principal focus of the report.
