Peer-Tested Content is What's Trending Now

After decades of publishing textbooks and CME activities in the gastroenterology space, in April 2012, SLACK Incorporated launched Healio.com/GI, its first foray into daily breaking headlines within the specialty.

Since that launch year, traffic on Healio.com/GI has increased approximately 200% — signaling an undeniable need from physicians for a fresh voice in gastroenterology news. In response, we present the premier issue of Healio Gastroenterology, a unique web-first print publication featuring peer-tested content that will be delivered monthly to 14,000 gastroenterologists and hepatologists beginning in January 2015.

As we do online each day, our award-winning reporting staff will continue to offer print readers timely and balanced late-breaking reports from national and international congresses, as well as treatment and diagnostic updates, FDA developments, clinical resources and guidelines for care.

Each month we'll choose our print content by looking at online analytics and including only the most highly trafficked headlines within our pages — assuring we deliver all in one place what your colleagues tell us are the most important things for you to know. Many of these stories will be enhanced for print with comments from our Peer Perspective Board, an invaluable team of specialists we've cultivated from leading institutions who will provide unbiased (and uncensored) peer context on the research developments that will be utilized in everyday practice.

In addition, Healio Gastroenterology, will highlight other must-see sections of Healio.com, like Curbside Consultation, our popular book series, or our Education Lab, where you can earn continuing medical education credits in a wide range of gastroenterology issues. Headlines from Healio.com's highly popular In the Journals section, which features executive summaries from the specialty's most important peer-reviewed journals, will also be showcased.

We feel confident that Healio Gastroenterology, and Healio.com/GI will quickly become your daily news destinations in the very important quest to stay current on research and improve patient outcomes. Visit us now online to shape the next issue with your readership. As long as our readers keep talking, we'll keep listening, with every headline we write.

Best,
SLACK Incorporated
Publishers of Healio Gastroenterology, and Healio.com/GI
