Case Study
Revamped the AJNR Website for a Better User Experience
The American Journal of Neuroradiology, a long-term HighWire partner, are moving to an online-only model for their flagship journal, and so wanted to maximise the user value for their online users.
HighWire worked closely with them in a series of workshops, resulting in multiple new features. This includes a homepage which personalises content in line with the users’ preferences, redesigned audiovisual displays, and interactive brain-scans (DICOM images) so the user can engage directly with the source content.
Conclusion
Here at the start of 2025, we want to take a moment to thank you for always being patient with us and believing in HighWire. Your support means a lot to us. We are trying our best to keep improving and innovating each day.
