* The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) has launched its new website
NEJM.org, offering users a deeper, broader, and more engaging experience through
improved search and navigation, specialty pages, interactive elements and a
number of integrated multimedia features, and the NEJM Archive, which features
the entire collection of past issues - over 150,000 articles, dating back to
1812 - in a searchable format. 
* NEJM.org goes beyond the page to create a more interactive community,
providing new ways for physicians to engage, teach, and interact online,
ultimately improving patient care and the practice of medicine.

medicine, including some of the most noteworthy and influential research ever
published.

easily accessible," says Chris Lynch, Vice President for Publishing. "The entire
history of modern medicine can be documented through the NEJM Archive."
