EUROTIMES APP
To coincide with the XXXII Congress of the ESCRS in London, EuroTimes, the official news magazine of the ESCRS, is now available as an app for download.
The latest development is key to consolidating EuroTimes’ role as one of the flagship publications of the ESCRS, the leading forum in Europe for discussion, learning and the development of cataract and refractive surgery.
Now in its nineteenth year of publication, the print version of the magazine has grown into Europe’s leading resource for ophthalmology news and now circulates to more than 40,000 ophthalmologists in Europe and around the world.
The new app will showcase the very best of EuroTimes’ compelling monthly mix of breaking news and features from leading ophthalmic surgeons and vision researchers. In addition, the app opens up exciting new possibilities for enhanced interactivity and more dynamic content for its readers.
Feature rich
The development team behind the EuroTimes app said that the goal was to offer more than simply a static online version of the print magazine, giving the magazine’s loyal readers a more immersive and feature-rich experience.
Harnessing the power of the latest mobile technologies, the team set out to create a digital version at the cutting edge of design with a fully interactive tablet and phone product compatible with both iOS and Android devices.
Emanuel Rosen, chairman of the ESCRS Publications Committee, said that the EuroTimes app was consistent with the ESCRS philosophy of continually innovating to better serve the needs of its members.
“The new app is a further ambitious step for EuroTimes and I believe it will offer exciting new opportunities for the publication. We have already stepped up our online presence in recent years through Facebook, Twitter and a revamped website, so the next logical step was to offer an enhanced digital version of our award-winning magazine for our readers,” he said.
Dr Rosen said that the app will present a platform for further growth for the magazine, enabling it to explore new modes of presenting dynamic and interactive content for its
discerning readership.
“The app will combine our print heritage with the exciting possibilities of an online format, all the while respecting our core principles of offering a trusted source of information and debate for our readers,” he said.
