About the Journal

International Journal of Interdisciplinary Medical Sciences (IJIMS) (ISSN: 3139-3071, Online) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal publishing original research at the intersection of modern biomedical science and traditional systems of medicine.

Based in Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, IJIMS offers researchers, clinicians, and academics a platform for interdisciplinary medical inquiry — one that evaluates evidence from contemporary clinical science and AYUSH systems (Ayurveda, Yoga, Unani, Siddha, Homeopathy) with equal scientific rigor. As a new journal, IJIMS is built from the outset on transparent editorial processes and a firm commitment to publication ethics.
