Rebrand and Open Access Future
In 2023, Evidence-Based Mental Health became a fully open access journal under the new title BMJ Mental Health. BMJ Mental Health is directed by the same international editorial team led by Editor-in-Chief Professor Andrea Cipriani. BMJ has a long-standing reputation as a pioneering publisher and champion of open access research and as BMJ Mental Health becomes fully open access we look forward to making all content published in the journal more accessible, transparent, and compliant with the principles of Plan S.
