The Society of General Internal Medicine (SGIM) invites submissions to a 
special issue of the Journal of General Internal Medicine (JGIM) on health 
literacy. Papers should be submitted online between now and June 30, 2005. 
Manuscripts will be reviewed by a team of experienced Co-Editors and peer 
reviewers. The goals of the theme issue are to 1) highlight state of the 
art research and education related to the role of literacy in healthcare,
2) 
respond to the priority areas outlined in the Institute of Medicine report, 
Health Literacy: A Prescription to End Confusion, and 3) provide insight
for 
clinicians, educators, researchers, administrators, and policy makers on 
addressing literacy in various healthcare settings.

instructions, please visit
