The Cutting Edge of Medical Technology Content, Community & Collaboration

Colleagues,

The Military Health System (MHS) this week announces a new addition to its range of communications tools: MHS Profiles. This online, interactive Web page, located at www.health.mil/profiles, combines social and traditional media to revolutionize the way the MHS communicates with its staff and the general public...

“MHS Profiles engages readers with compelling personal stories of individuals that tell not what but who the MHS is, and how their work advances military health,” says Dr. Michael Kilpatrick, Director of Strategic Communications for the Military Health System. “These are the people of the MHS; the researchers, the teachers and the providers who dedicate their lives to protecting our Armed Services.”

The first issue of MHS Profiles tells the story of Lt. Cmdr. Patrick Blair, a Navy immunologist who works on H1N1 influenza research with the Naval Health Research Center in San Diego. His career as a “virus hunter” has taken him to the Andes mountains in Peru, where he identified and tracked three diseases not previously known to be in the region...

... The series of personalized articles will focus on the people who work on innovative and progressive programs designed to meet the needs of our service members, veterans and their families. New issues are slated to appear monthly.

Read the inaugural issue of MHS Profiles at www.health.mil/profiles.

ENJOY!
