Dynamic New Web Site Spotlights Medical Research

Format: Web Site
Institute: Office of the Director (OD)

NIH has launched a revamped Web site that represents the latest thinking about effective Web design. The new homepage emphasizes visual elements and dynamic links and uses text more sparingly.

To make it easier to locate new and important information, the redesigned site replaces the text-heavy center of the old page with a dynamic visual area—a five-panel slideshow—that will be regularly updated to feature the latest activities of NIH’s 27 Institutes and Centers.
