Today, Roon, the physician intelligence network where doctors connect, share expertise, and shape the future of medicine, announced that the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) now has a profile live on the platform. As one of the world’s leading medical journals, NEJM will feature its trusted medical research in a physician-only environment designed for peer discussion, debate, and clinical application. The launch marks Roon’s first official journal presence on the platform and a major step toward making medical knowledge more social, accessible, and actionable for physicians.

Physicians are already overwhelmed by the pace of modern clinical practice, making it increasingly difficult to keep up with new medical literature, let alone interpret it in context. Both Roon and NEJM share their aim to meet doctors where they are: bringing published evidence into a space where it can be discussed, challenged, contextualized, and applied alongside peers.

“For generations, medical journals have shaped how physicians learn, debate, and practice,” says Dr. Rohan Ramakrishna, Neurosurgeon and Co-Founder of Roon. “But in a world where everyone is drowning in AI summaries, we believe physicians deserve something deeper and more human: a place to engage with the literature, discuss it with colleagues, ask questions, debate implications, and rediscover the joy of learning together. That’s why we’re honored to have NEJM join Roon’s physician intelligence network to help create a new digital home for research discovery.”

More than 80 percent of physicians now use AI professionally, including for medical research, and while that’s democratized access to information, it’s also changed how research gets consumed. When findings arrive as AI-generated summaries and bullet points, the nuance and context that make them clinically meaningful, or not, can be lost.

“Modern medicine allows us to do more for our patients, but corporate pressures and the electronic health record have made practice less intimate,” says Dr. Bob Wachter, Roon member and Chair of the Department of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. “Roon has filled the void, becoming healthcare’s digital watercooler: a space for expert curation and genuine collegial exchange. The presence of the New England Journal of Medicine takes that a step further, enabling thoughtful, evidence-based discussions of landmark articles – and, with any luck, restoring some of the joy that drew us to medicine in the first place.”

Looking ahead, Roon plans to work with additional leading medical journals to further equip the platform and the physicians on it with the resources to analyze and debate research from around the world. Roon is free to download on the Apple App Store and available on the web at www.roon.com.

About Roon

Roon is the physician intelligence network: a professional home for doctors in the AI era. Part digital doctors’ lounge, part knowledge network, and part physician community, Roon gives physicians a trusted place to connect across specialties, exchange real-world experience, debate science and policy, and learn from leading voices in medicine. Roon is built on the belief that medicine advances not only through papers and guidelines, but through the judgment, pattern recognition, mentorship, and lived experience physicians develop through caring for patients every day. As medical information expands exponentially and trust in expertise becomes increasingly fragmented, Roon helps physicians make sense of knowledge together. By connecting expert insight with clinical experience and scientific evidence, Roon transforms the wisdom of individual physicians into collective intelligence that improves patient care and strengthens the profession.
