BioWorld Launches Enhanced Website

ATLANTA, Nov. 2, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Biopharmaceutical industry insiders know that news about the world's most innovative drugs in development has always come from BioWorld. BioWorld's award-winning coverage of the biopharma industry continues, but now it's bigger, better and has more with a brand new website (www.bioworld.com).

It's easier than ever to access BioWorld Today, BioWorld Insight and BioWorld International. A brand new turbo-charged search engine facilitates more precise searches for a database that's rich with more than two decades of data on drugs in development, the companies behind those drugs, key scientific milestones, the deals, regulatory hurdles, financings and analysis.

"We've spent a lot of time and resources internally working on the site. But our focus has always been to the outside – on enhancing our content and the overall experience for our customers," said Donald R. Johnston, BioWorld's senior vice president and group publisher. "We hope both subscribers and first-time visitors spend some time exploring all of the new site's assets. We look forward to your feedback!"  

Other enhancements include:

  • Breaking news stories from around the globe presented up front, as they happen.
  • Thought leaders weigh in via BioWorld Perspectives, a blog for the biopharma community.
  • An instant poll provides feedback on hot topics.
  • One-click access to the biopharma social community on Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook.
  • Key industry players sound off in BioWorld videos.
  • A deeper dive beyond breaking news with industry analysis from BioWorld Insight.
  • Video, images, content sharing with social media and comments
