German Medical Data SciencesPreface for the 3rd Volume Preface by the Editorial Board

摘要

This year 263 contributions were submitted for the GMDS Annual Meeting, including four full papers for the MIBE and 69 for a publication in the GMDS series in Studies in Health Technologies and Informatics, as well as 192 abstracts. All submissions were reviewed in a two-stage peer review process. A total of 760, in some cases very extensive, reviews were carried out by 280 experts. In a meta-review, the preliminary results were communicated to the authors with information on the revision of the contributions. After the revision, a second, shortened metareview took place. A total of one contribution to publication in MIBE and 38 contributions to publication in the GMDS Series was accepted. A detailed presentation of the results of the peer review process is shown in Figure 1.
