Alerts are a CCM original publication. CCM realizing the need to fill the gap in continuing medical education in the field of everyday clinical practice, has published the innovative series of Alerts, in association with ACP, ASCO and other prominent Medical Societies. In every issue of each Alerts, the reader will find news of special interest, a highlight article and announcements of forthcoming Congresses and Meetings pertaining to each specialty.

The editors and medical advisors at CCM have access, often exclusive, to comprehensive international literature sources. We compile and extract information for each specialized edition of Alerts in order to present the most current, interesting and cutting-edge articles, and to position Alerts as a respected, useful tool for physicians in everyday practice.

Other sources of information include highly-accredited international institutions such as the World Health Organization, EMEA, American College of Physicians, American Society of Clinical Oncology and more.
