Beginning today, The American Journal of Medicine will start publishing many letters to the editor and related research articles on the AJM blog, instead of in the print Journal or the Web-based Journal.
Often AJM readers are inspired to write letters to the editor soon after a new issue has been released. Unfortunately, due to production schedules, these letters and related replies often are printed four to six months later. Putting letters on the blog will allow for immediate publication of not only the letters themselves but also of comments by the author(s) of the original article and comments by blog readers. Letters and comments originally published on the blog will not receive an AJM citation and will not be listed in PubMed.
AJM's editors believe that the immediacy of blog publication will open up a new world of lively scientific debate on this blog and on the Internet.
