JMIR Publications Knowledge Translation Services
"Knowledge Translation Services offer crucial solutions for complex engagement and advocacy opportunities"
Press Releases - $800
- Let your research make some news! JMIR authors can have a press release created by an in-house communications specialist.
- An internal analysis on the impact of press releases and news coverage found an overall increase in Altmetric scores, which has been proven to positively influence citations in the future.
- We coordinate with university and institution press offices for the preparation and distribution of press material.
Visual Abstract - $545
A Visual Abstract is a brief summary of the key findings of an article, presented in a graphical format for easy uptake by readers. It gives the reader a quick overview of the main study findings at a glance, and helps them decide whether the paper is relevant to their interests. Such a representation of the study also allows for better dissemination of the article to a broad audience.

TrendMD - Starting at $250
- TrendMD is a large network of publishers cross-promoting articles (over 3,600 journals from 300 publishers and over 85 million unique readers per month).
- JMIR Publications (a co-founder of TrendMD*) is using TrendMD routinely to promote/disseminate articles published in JMIR Publications journals across other publishers and journals including for example JAMA or BMJ (see screenshots below).
- Your JMIR Publications article will appear as "related articles" in articles published in other journals and at other publishers.
