JAMIA Open is a peer-reviewed, online-only, and Gold Open Access journal, JAMIA Open provides a global forum for the publication of novel research and insights in the major areas of informatics for biomedicine and health (e.g., translational bioinformatics, clinical research informatics, clinical informatics, public health informatics, and consumer health informatics), as well as related areas such as data science, qualitative research, and implementation science.
JAMIA Open articles, which include application notes, database notes, and patient/community perspectives, alongside original research, reflect the broad diversity of the field of informatics community, focusing on the intersection of informatics, health, communication, and technology, and how that intersection can support patient care through research, practice, and education. JAMIA Open authors are encouraged to make data and source code accessible through publicly accessible repositories that can be cited using digital object identifiers. Accepted manuscripts are required to have a patient/community facing abstract that highlights key findings. Author guidelines.
Neil Sarkar, PhD, MLIS, FACMI, is the Editor-in-Chief and leads a team of informatics leaders serving as the JAMIA Open Editorial Board and Associate Editors.

This study aims to (1) evaluate Registered Dietitian Nutritionists' (RDN) likelihood of using a web-based tool to provide culturally- and medically tailored nutrition services, (2) […]
Help us document what we already do: pilot study of clinical decision support tools targeting social risk-informed care.
June 1, 2025
Little is known about how clinical decision support (CDS) tools can support care teams in changing clinical decisions to account for patients' social risks. We piloted a suite of electronic health record (EHR)-based CDS tools designed to facilitate social risk-informed care decisions to assess how the tools were used in […]
Multimorbidity patterns and early signals of diabetes in online communities.
