Aims & Scope

About the Journal Énoncé de mission Le JMUO est un journal revu, édité et publié par les étudiants de la Faculté de Médecine. Nous encourageons les soumissions d'une variété de différents domaines en recherche biomédicale et publions des articles de recherche originale, des articles de revue, des nouvelles et commentaires, des rapports de cas et des pièces d'opinion. Nos articles sont écrits en Français et en Anglais et représentent le seul journal médical bilingue au Canada. Processus d'évaluation par les pairs UOJM employs a double-blind peer review to minimize bias in reviewing submissions. Each submission is reviewed by at least 3 reviewers who evaluate the significance, scientific validity and originality. Reviewers are students and/or faculty members at the University of Ottawa. The turnaround time for a review is 2 weeks. Please note, all manuscripts will be screened for plagiarism via Turnitin prior to peer review 1. Privacy Please note that all information submitted as part of this document will be confidential and will only be used for the review process of UOJM, unless as otherwise stated to be necessary in the final publication. 2. Conflicts of Interest To ensure high level of integrity and minimal bias in the works presented in the UOJM, authors must disclose and declare all potential conflicts of interest. These include, but are not limited to, all personal assistance, financial relationships and sources of funding leading to the submission, and all organizations that could potentially profit or lose through the publication of the manuscript. Authors must explicitly state all potential conflicts in a specific section as part of the submission to the UOJM, and provide additional documentation if necessary. Investigators are also expected to disclose these conflicts to all participants in the study, and should state whether they have done so in their manuscript. The declaring of conflicts does not exclude a submission from publication, but would be taken
