The purpose of this study is to design and develop educational technology tools, primarily using the World Wide Web, for effectively recruiting young scientists to Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. We have taken the position that technology would offer major advantages in administration, teaching and learning, and have embraced this approach wholeheartedly over the last two years. The results appear to support our optimism in utilizing this approach. The primary functions of this office are recruiting, finding resources, educating and providing career development assistance for young scientists. We have used the Web and its database capabilities extensively in almost every aspect of our mission. The Educational Technology Unit designs and develops interactive Web-based applications that provide user-specific information for young scientists, investigators and communities.
