S1, E18 - Tiffany Leung, MD - Scientific Editorial Director, JMIR

In this episode of Practical AI in Healthcare, we sit down with Dr. Tiffany Leung, Scientific Editorial Director at JMIR Publications, to explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping scientific publishing from the inside out. As open access journals face unprecedented volumes of submissions, AI is simultaneously enabling faster discovery and creating new challenges around research integrity, peer review, and trust in the scientific record.Tiffany shares how journals are adapting to generative AI tools, from policy development and disclosure norms to editorial decision support systems that help identify potential risks without stifling innovation. The conversation moves beyond hype to examine how AI can act as a co scientist, streamline editorial workflows, and potentially redefine peer review itself. This episode offers a rare look at how AI is influencing not just what gets published, but how knowledge is validated and shared globally.
