The Figure 1 App Helps Users Stay Up to Date on Current Cases

— April 25, 2018 — Tech
In order to help healthcare professionals stay on top of the latest cases, therapies, treatments, and more that are happening within the industry, the Figure 1 app was created.

The app has been hailed as the "Instagram for doctors," due to its easy-to-navigate front end, which allows users to scroll through at their leisure to see condensed content that can be clicked into for further information. Although the app was created with medical professionals in mind, anyone is welcome to sign up, as much of the content is useful to students, journalists and others who are looking to learn.

If users who are healthcare professionals wish to share their own photos and stories, they have to be verified first, to ensure that all the content remains on topic and relevant to others in the industry.
Trend Themes
1. Medical Professional Networking - The rise of healthcare professional social apps like Figure 1 creates opportunities for medical professionals to connect, collaborate, and share best practices.
2. Mobile Learning for Medical Education - The Figure 1 app and similar platforms offer a convenient way for healthcare professionals and students to access up-to-date information and learn from real-life cases.
3. Crowdsourced Medical Knowledge - Apps like Figure 1 allow medical professionals to contribute their expertise and help build a collective database of valuable medical knowledge.
Industry Implications
1. Healthcare Technology - Healthcare technology companies can explore opportunities to develop innovative social platforms tailored specifically for medical professionals.
2. Mobile App Development - The success of Figure 1 indicates a growing demand for mobile apps targeting healthcare professionals, presenting opportunities for developers to create similar platforms with unique features.
3. Medical Education and Training - Educational institutions and organizations can integrate social learning platforms like Figure 1 into their medical education programs to enhance knowledge sharing and case-based learning.
