Meeting Summary
IRT Staffing Changes
Med 2.0 Design Update
Stanford's Clinical Trials Directory
Web-Author Training
Video/Audio (Podcasting) Services
IRT Staffing Changes: Richard Renn (aka Renn) is the new Director of Web and New Media Services. Michael Halaas (the previous director) has been promoted to Associate CIO of Web and Systems Engineering.
Med 2.0 Design Update: We have made much progress in converting all sites to the school’s new Web design. The planned completion date for this conversion is April, 2008.
- 160 sites have been completed
- 53 sites with tab navigation are in progress; slated for completion by end of March
- 107 tabless sites are slated for conversion in April
Stanford's Clinical Trials Directory: IRT has launched the Clinical Trial Directory, a publicly accessible database of all clinical trials at Stanford and its affiliated facilities. The directory meets a longstanding need among patients, referring physicians and internal audiences for a comprehensive online listing of all clinical trials at the School of Medicine. Using this application, principal investigators and study coordinators can post descriptions of their clinical trials to a user-friendly web portal for easy public browsing and searching. The system will integrate with clinicaltrials.gov to satisfy registration requirements for all trials, per the position of the ICMJE and WHO.
Web-Author Training: Starting January 2008, we will offer a number of new classroom trainings, including SoM Contribute, SoM Dreamweaver Beginner, and SoM Dreamweaver Intermediate. Online training with multimedia is now available for both Contribute users and Dreamweaver users. For in-person training, please see class schedule.
Video/Audio/Podcasting Support: We support a range of new media content that can be used to enhance your site or to extend the reach of your group's online communications. These include online video, online audio and podcasting.
How To Integrate Dynamic Content into Static Sites: One of the things that makes the School of Medicine Web environment so powerful is the integration between "static" sites maintained using Dreamweaver or Contribute, and vast amounts of "dynamic" information stored in central databases and managed by the information's owners, rather than by Web Authors. With a simple twist of a URL from the Community Academic Profiles system, Clinical Trials directory and the Biomedical Seminars calendar, Web Authors can link to this kind of information, and have it appear to be continuous with the static site.
