CMPMedica has expanded SearchMedica.com to include SearchMedica Oncology. SearchMedica Oncology is a dedicated search engine for oncologists and hematologists and is available at www.SearchMedica.com/Oncology. SearchMedica.com was co-developed with Convera Corporation (NASDAQ:CNVR) , www.convera.com, a leading provider of vertical search services for publishers.

SearchMedica Oncology now includes new functionality which allows search results to be prioritized by publication date, making the most timely and relevant clinical information easily accessible to oncologists and hematologists. All SearchMedica Oncology search results are independent, unbiased and ranked according to relevance, with the option to prioritize results by publication date. They contain well-known, credible journals, peer-reviewed research, and evidence-based articles written for practicing healthcare professionals.

Convera is a leading provider of vertical search services for publishers. Based on a semantic index of the Web, Convera enables publishers to generate additional revenue by creating customized search applications for specialist audiences under their own brand.

SearchMedica.com indexes only authoritative medical information, approved for inclusion by medical editors and a physician editorial board. Medical professionals receive more relevant, smaller sets of search results from SearchMedica.com than from mainstream engines, which contain consumer- oriented, paid testimonials and other types of unreliable information. Since SearchMedica.com is advertiser supported, medical professionals pay nothing to use the specialty search engines. All SearchMedica search results are independent and unbiased.
