3. Physicians Online

4. The Problem
 Educational medical content is scattered on portable media devices,
intranet folders and across the web
 Individual physicians and medical groups do not have a way to
share, discuss content effectively with each other
 Industry presence in clinical practices has declined and become
inefficient so it is seeking new ways to reach physicians online

5. Our Solution


exclusively for physicians, researchers, and medical students
Connect members and groups of the medical and research communities

Share clinical insights, user-generated content (images, videos, slides, podcasts)

On-demand access to up-to-date medical and research information generated

by members and offered by content providers
Emphasis on convergence, communication and collaboration
