Posterdocuments - launches breakthrough Online Resource for Healthcare
Professionals
KINGSTON, ON, Aug. 19 /CNW/ - Posterdocuments Inc. is pleased to announce a new website that will provide HealthCare Professionals with access to academic poster material.
Posterdocuments (www.Posterdocuments.com) will provide HealthCare Professionals with the means to a free and convenient way to access academic poster material subsequent to medical symposia and conferences.
www.Posterdocuments.com has launched this new website to enhance the quality of conferencing education through the provision of website access to academic poster material(s) following medical conferences. This will allow further communication of leading research via digital web images of posters that can be studied and referenced following the conference presentation. Podcasting and other options are available.
New medical research findings alter the face of medicine through new understandings. But, until now, this information has been difficult to access when the conference is over. www.Posterdocuments.com allows for the research information and conclusions to be extended beyond conference registrants. The research can be accessed by those that did not attend the conference and disseminated to a wider audience of Healthcare Professionals.
www.Posterdocuments.com also increases the visibility of both the research findings and the respective authors through an enduring web-based tool. Award winning posters are featured through advertising and the addition of podcasts.
www.Posterdocuments.com is hyperlinked to pertinent conference websites. Readers are able to review the latest research and the site also helps to promote future conferences. A variety of search options assist users in selecting relevant posters from the database according to conference, poster or subject area.
Currently posters that are accessible at www.Posterdocuments.com include those from the Canadian Pain Society, The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada, The Canadian Nephrology Society, and The Canadian Association for Pathologists with plans for additional medical societies/associations in the fall of 2010.
"This site elevates posters to a whole new level. It is organized in a way that is easily accessible and you can read the posters anywhere, anytime. And podcasts too!" Walter Rosser (2010 recipient of the Order of Canada) MD, CCFP FCFP, MRCGP (UK)
"Posterdocuments will be of huge potential interest to clinicians, researchers, students and healthcare professionals at large, by providing convenient access to cutting edge research that is not easily available anywhere else." said Roman Jovey, Past President of The Canadian Pain Society "It will allow authors wider dissemination for their research long after the clinical meeting is finished. I look forward to future collaboration and new opportunities that will be provided as www.posterdocuments grows and expands."
"This is fantastic. I attend many research and CME meetings and this is the first time I can access posters on-line after a meeting, or from a meeting I could not attend. It will clearly facilitate and increase communication of yet to be published material between researchers and educators." Fred Tudiver, MD, CCFP, FCFP, FAAFP. Director, International Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine.
"We are very excited to be able to offer a unique site to access medical research," Ian Burgham of Posterdocuments Inc. "There is so much cutting edge research being presented at the various medical conferences but nowhere to access it once the meeting is done, so we look forward to providing this information to Healthcare Professionals. In some cases information, provided in a more accessible way to a wider audience, will impact clinical practice, outlook and competence and ultimately could affect better patient outcomes."
Posterdocuments currently works to provide consultation services to medical agencies, medical societies and associations of specialists and general healthcare providers as well as pharmaceutical companies, device companies, and academic institutions by offering expertise in medical marketing, medical education, conferencing and professional development.
