Personalized Health News
Why Personalize Your Homepage and Menu?
Medical News Today's standard homepage shows the latest news in the world of health. We now publish up to 170 medical and health news articles every day in 111 different therapeutic areas. We realise that you may not be interested in reading all of this news and that you may only be interested in specific areas of health.
Personalization lets you choose specific categories from our list and then automatically adapts your homepage to show news solely from these chosen categories. An additional menu item also appears at the top of your left navigation bar, containing quick links to the news archives of your chosen categories. More details on the navigation menu are available further down this page.
Example 1: if you are interested only in articles related to Genetics, Stem Cells, Biology then only articles related to these subjects will appear on your homepage.
Example 2: if you are interested only in articles related to ADHD, Bipolar, Depression, Dyslexia, Mental Health then only articles related to these subjects will appear on your homepage.
You can add or remove categories at any time at the click of a button. So if you gain an interest in other areas at a later date, you can easily change your settings to start showing these articles on your homepage.
Different Homepage Personalization Layouts
There are three ways you can view news on your homepage when using homepage personalization:
1) Separated Layout
This layout shows the latest 5 headlines from your chosen categories, split into separate page sections. The news within each category is ordered by date, with the newest articles
appearing at the top.
2) Combined Layout
This layout shows news from your chosen categories in one long list, ordered by date with the newest articles appearing at the top.
3) Original Layout
This view displays news from all categories. The list is ordered by date, with the newest published articles appearing at the top of the list. This is the default view that
appears if you haven't used the personalized homepage before or if you have logged out of your account.
Personalized Navigation Menu
Not only does our Personalization system allow you to change your homepage, but it also gives you a handy extra left menu item at the top of the main navigation menu.
This extra yellow menu shows your chosen categories and allows you to quickly navigate to the news archives for those categories.
