WebMD unveiled Medscape MedPulse, a medical news app for iPhone and iPad that allows healthcare professionals to stay up-to-date on the latest medical news and expert perspectives while on the go.

Featuring the latest medical content from Medscape’s editorial team, the application is touted as the first medical news app to include an automatically curated Twitter feed to help users stay informed of important medical trends being shared in real-time by physicians and other leading medical commentators.

Users can personalize their experience by choosing the specialties, topics and experts that are most important to them. In that sense, MedPulse can filter out the noise and focus on the most pertinent information healthcare professionals need to know.

The MedPulse app is available now in the iTunes store. Register for a free Medscape account by visiting www.medscape.com.
