eCollaboration Tools

Humanitas’ eCollaboration Tools include:

• ePanel© , our web-based review management application
• Content Management Systems (CMS), using open source technology platforms

ePanel© was developed through a Small Business Innovation Research Grant (SBIR) program in the 1990's. ePanel© has been in continuous use by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to facilitate peer reviews for adult and pediatric cancer research. ePanel© can be used for independent reviews (field reviews), collaborative meetings (panel reviews), and face-to-face conferences.

Web-based Content Management Systems (CMS) provide portal-based site for public and private knowledge development and exchange. Collaborators, who may not be knowledgeable in website design or HTML, can easily create, modify, and remove content from a site without the cost associated with a dedicated webmaster. Humanitas has developed customized online solutions for clients to:

• Review, comment, and reach consensus on business materials
• Engage business communities to exchange best practices 
• Design communication tools that unify audiences located nationwide and globally 
• Provide technical assistance to bridge research and practice
