Bone & Joint have launched a new content platform that brings together all of their customer-facing products; their journals (The Bone & Joint Journal, Bone & Joint 360, Bone & Joint Open, Bone & Joint Research and Orthopaedic Proceedings) and digital services (OrthoMedia and OrthoSearch), whilst also providing the flexibility to develop new products in the future.
The platform has been built by technology consultancy 67 Bricks, as part of an ongoing partnership between the two companies. The teams worked closely together to create a digital space that holds user needs at its core, providing a clear, easy-to-use and intuitive platform. The launch marks a significant milestone in Bone & Joint’s mission to be the go-to resource for orthopaedic surgeons throughout their careers.
