The Radiation Emergency Medical Management (REMM) Team is proud to announce the first major redesign of the REMM Web site since it was launched in 2007. The redesign includes a more modern banner, a new color palette and font style, and a new navigation system.

There are now 6 content groups on the new home page. We have added an easy to use navigational menu at the top of the home page with sections for:

• Interactive Clinical Tools
• Diagnosis and Treatment
• Reference and Data
• Overview of REMM and
• Links to downloading the REMM app for various mobile devices

One of our most popular features, the Multimedia Library in carousel form, remains on the home page, with 7 categories of multimedia assets.

Since REMM’s last major content update in November 2014, significant content updates have been added including:

1. New references on most of the Emergencies Incidents pages
2. New references in the Key Guidance Documents section
3. Information about the March 2015 FDA-approval of filgrastim for the indication of radiation-induced myelosuppression
4. New section describing Selection of Radiation Detection Systems

15. REMM has a new email update notification system by GovDelivery. If you are a REMM Listserv subscriber, you don't need to do anything. You were automatically moved to the new system.

Users who have previously bookmarked REMM pages of interest should know that all the prior URLs have been retained, so the bookmarks will still work just like before.

Users who have visited REMM pages before may need to refresh (reload) the Web page to see the new design. Otherwise, only the old pages cached in your browser will display.
