lab, university and state organizations

Rivers Agency has a long history of working with laboratories, medical and heath organizations and university departments to create specialized and informative websites as well as branded print collateral. Located near the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, our team has fostered a strong relationship with many of UNC’s research and health organizations.

For an example of our extensive work, visit the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy. This web site has thousands of internal lab websites and was built using Plone, an enterprise-grade content management system.

The CREATE pharmacogenetics research network and the Carolina Collaborative for Research on Work and Health are two other websites that we built for hard-working labs at UNC. The work of these labs is very important to science worldwide, and feel honored that we played a role in sharing their important work with the public.

Our medical organization clients extend from Cervical Cancer-Free America, run by UNC School of Pubic Health scientist Dr. Jennifer Smith, to the UNC Center for Maternal & Infant Health and UNC Pediatric Dentistry. These sites were created with public health and consumer audiences in mind.

Our Unique Approach

Our goal when developing medical web sites is to make information easy to find and use. Before we begin any project, we take the time to study the work, history, grants, research and personalities of the individuals involved.

For organizations with vast amounts of information, we have created clean, easy-to-navigate and totally client content-managed websites such as the North Carolina Institute of Medicine and the North Carolina Medical Journal. Both of these sites focus on scholarly research and writing and were built to bring that information to heath care providers, researchers and the general public. Another website we’ve been involved with – NC Healthcare Help – is a search tool built in tandem with these two publication sites to help the general public locate a doctor or healthcare provider.

Bold design takes a forefront in the clever, eye-catching designs that Rivers Agency created for SNAP, a research study web site, TUNTek, a scientific lab website, and GrassRoots Biotechnology, a brand-oriented biotech website.

However expansive your lab, university or state organization may be, Rivers Agency has the experience, insight and dedication to help communicate your mission, brand and work through an attractive, well-designed website.
