SAN WEBSITE RELAUNCHED WITH NEW FUNCTIONALITIES

On 1 December 2005, the Society of Applied Neuroscience relaunched its website <http://www.applied-neuroscience.org>, unveiling a new look with added features. This effort is part of the current drive to help the Society raise its profile and respond better to the needs of its audience.

The aim of the redesign was to make the site more dynamic and user-friendly while taking advantage of developing web technologies and increased functionality. The new website uses an Open Source Content Management System (<http://www.joomla.org/>http://www.joomla.org).

Additional features of the new site include:

* Full-text search of the website, including abstracts;

* Members Directory with links to members' websites;

* Members-only area;

* Possibility for registered members to post job opportunities to the SAN website;

* Possibility for registered members to post meeting and events to the SAN website.

Future developments are under implementation and being planned, including an improved online dues payment sytem.

Regarding the Members Directory: if you think you are a member in good standing and you do not find yourself in the Members Directory, or your information is out-of-date, please write to <mailto:office@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>office@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

The website will play an increasingly important part in the promotion of the SAN in the future, and it is hoped that users will find the new site both informative and easy to use.

We welcome any comments and suggestions that you may have on the new look and structure of the web site. Please direct them to Patricia Bellinghausen at <belling@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>.
