Companies, individuals and other organizations are invited to support the development of Open Medicine by becoming a journal sponsor.

Sponsorships provide unrestricted funds that will help Open Medicine advance its service to authors and readers and fulfill its mission. Sponsors of Open Medicine will be listed on our website.

To ensure their commitment to the integrity of debate within the pages of Open Medicine, and to the independence of our editors, sponsors of Open Medicine will be asked to endorse the following sponsorship statement:

"We support the mission and principles of Open Medicine and recognize the potential for competing interests while providing financial support to the Journal. We hereby state that we will not attempt to influence any editorial decisions made by the editors of Open Medicine, in return for our support."

Open Medicine reserves the right to refuse sponsorship from any business or organization. In keeping with our policy on advertising, Open Medicine does not accept sponsorships from pharmaceutical or medical device companies.

Our sponsorship policy is based on the sponsorship policy of a similar non-profit organization of scientists and physicians committed to making the world's scientific and medical literature a public resource.

Please contact info@openmedicine.ca if you are interested in becoming an Open Medicine sponsor, inserting "Sponsorship" in the subject line.
