Annals of Internal Medicine launches new website

Annals of Internal Medicine has launched its website on a new digital platform to provide internal medicine specialists and subspecialists with a faster, more personalized Web experience across Annals, ACP Journal Club, In the Clinic, and PubMed, and a new multimedia library.

“Visitors can access information quickly and easily—whether it is the latest Annals articles or related commentary, CME, multimedia content, patient education materials, or teaching slides,” said Christine Laine, MD, MPH, FACP, Annals' editor-in-chief and senior vice president at ACP. “The new design, information architecture, and site navigation are intended to make the user experience more efficient, effective, and engaging for busy internists.”

The new website has a cleaner, more attractive design with new features, including:

• Online first: streaming media of the latest clinical news before it is published in the journal's print edition.
• Quick links: article-specific CME, slides, patient information, multimedia, and commenting and sharing features.
• Smarter article collections: immediate access to collections organized by specialty, disease, and special topics.
• Better search tools: More meaningful results, with screening and refining options.
• Mobility: Automatic mobile-friendly display when accessing annals.org from any smartphone.
