Profiles to soon open doors to a greater cross-section of Harvard faculty
Viewed thousands of times since its launch on September 4, 2008, Profiles, the social networking application of the Harvard Catalyst website, is its most frequently visited page. The application automatically populates each entry with such faculty directory information as name, titles, affiliation, phone number, and email address. Faculty members can also add or remove publications from PubMed, manually add those not listed in PubMed, list awards, create a personal narrative, and show their Harvard ID photo.
Though Profiles currently only includes faculty from Harvard Medical School and Harvard School of Dental Medicine, the faculties of the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and the Harvard School of Public Health will be added in the near future, making it easier to build connections across the university and putting new collaborations at users' fingertips.
