AME Publishing Company is an academic publishing company, which publishes medical journals and books. Founded in July 2009, it is currently headquartered in Hong Kong, with additional offices in Guangzhou, Changsha, Nanjing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Beijing, Taipei, and Hangzhou. Its name stands for "Academic Made Easy/Excellent/Enthusiastic".[1] It has published over 50 medical journals, as well as 20 English-language books, 28 Chinese-language books, and 60 e-books.[2]

It was included on Beall's list of predatory publishers.[3] Although the publisher did not make an official response statement, one of its journals subsequently published a commissioned editorial skeptical of the list.[4] In 2020 it signed up to the Publons review tracking service in order to improve its peer review processes.[5]
