The GMJ Knowledge Hub is the official learning and evidence platform of the Georgian Medical Journal, operated by the Public Health Institute of Georgia (PHIG). It unites, within a single structured environment, the resources required to develop scientific authors, deliver continuing public health education, translate evidence for clinicians and the public, and connect curated knowledge to the journal's thematic issues.
The Hub is organized as a guided pathway — beginning with practical support for writing and publishing a first scientific article, extending through the GMJ Podcast and Sheni Academy, connecting to the broad public health communication work of sheniekimi.ge, and opening into five curated thematic knowledge sections that accompany GMJ special issues. All content is provided free of charge.

GMJ Author Toolkit — Primary Resource
The GMJ Author Toolkit is the central and most comprehensive resource for authors. It consolidates the full publication pathway — article development, manuscript structure, reporting standards (CONSORT, STROBE, PRISMA, CARE), Vancouver referencing, ICMJE authorship requirements, ethical declarations, and submission readiness — into one curated guide aligned with GMJ editorial policies.
