Video Summary Guidelines
IJHPM has adopted a new initiative in line with the knowledge translation movements by asking authors to prepare a video summary of their articles and publishing them on the IJHPM YouTube Channel.
Our video summaries present the summary of our recently published articles, filmed by articles’ authors. By video summaries we aim to help both academics and non-academics to scan the literature promptly and understand quickly the key themes of an article without going through pages of an article. We hope that our video summaries will help our articles to be more visible, reachable, and discoverable. We also hope to provide a personalized forum for our authors to simply convey their article messages to the IJHPM global readership.
To prepare video please kindly consider the following points:
