Profile Redesign 2024
We're excited to release a redesign of website profiles in July 2024. Our goal was to create a modern, visually appealing layout that leverages data to demonstrate expertise, depth, and breadth of work of faculty and staff.
Some of the improved features include:
- An easy to navigate layout
- Customizable options for faculty and staff to choose which activities and accomplishments they want to highlight on their own profile.
- Option to include a banner image
- An enhanced, filterable and sortable publications list with Altmetric attention and PubMed citation scores from Dimensions.
- The ability to highlight individual statistics or provide introductory statements about the work you do as it pertains to the core missions of the school: Research, Education, and Patient Care.
- Expansion of the profile to display collaborators, mentees and teaching activities.
3 Frequently Asked Questions
What will happen to the information in my current profile?
All the information in your profile will still be there. The new interfaces introduces some new content areas that can further enhance your presentation, e.g. collaborators, mentees and teaching activities.
What if I don't want to have all this information on my profile?
You do not need to add these custom features to your profile. The profile layout dynamically adjusts to show the information entered in your profile that you choose to display.
How do I get started?
Faculty and staff will receive an invitation to view and edit a preview of what their new profile will look like in mid-July. Stay tuned for more info!
