The editorial team of The International Journal of Body, Mind, and Culture is headquartered in Iran (Danesh-e Tandorosti Institute), Germany (Department of Psychosomatic Medicine, Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg), and Canada (Behi Academy), supported by a diverse group of international editors from various countries. In 2014, in a session in the course of a Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst (DAAD) project, "Globalization and Mental Health," the presence of Michael Wirsching, Farzad Goli, Carl Eduard Scheidt, and Hamid Afshar, it was decided to release a journal for psychosomatic studies, especially interdisciplinary and cross-cultural ones, and also theoretical studies in the medical philosophy. This led to the establishment of the International Journal of Body, Mind, and Culture (IJBMC) and an internationally eligible editorial board. The first issue of the International Journal was released in 2014.The IJBMC (International Journal of Body, Mind and Culture) is an international bimonthly double-blind peer-reviewed interdisciplinary medical journal and a fully “online first” publication. Our publishing model—continuous publication— means that all articles appear on ijbmc.org before being released in the complete issue.The website is updated weekly with the IJBMC’s latest theoretical and original research, case reports, education, news, and comment articles. All the IJBMC’s research is published with open access and up to 5000 word counts. There is an exception for theoretical papers that could be more than the word limit of the journal, which may end up being 7500 words.
