Regrouping to PlanJust as genomics is the future of personalized medicine, personalized media are changing the way people get the news and information they want and need. But as genomics increasingly supplements and improves traditional medicine without replacing it, new media are helpful additions to mainstream, mass media. We strongly recommend reforming our processes to efficiently produce content that can be used for both mass media and personalized media.
Content Creation Task Force, 7/26/2006
We recommend a three-phase approach. First, take our existing products and, with minimum incremental effort, place them in new media formats. Second... work across teams ... to make best use of the audio and video production resources we have. Third, get more resources... to produce timely or even daily content...
We have not recommended a blog strategy at this time, primarily because we have emphasized developing audio and video content that could have multiple uses in both mass media and personalized media, with relatively limited physician involvement.
Reasons for Reluctance about Blogging• Keeping the content fresh
• Wise use of resources• Physician/Researcher• Public Affairs
• Authenticity - didn’t want to “ghost blog”
