About 2 Minute Medicine
2 Minute Medicine is a peer-reviewed and physician-led medical publishing and original news syndication company founded in 2012 by Marc D. Succi, a physician at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School. The company focuses on curating, writing, and editing high-impact medical news and research summaries, with all content created and peer-reviewed by practicing physicians and health professionals. Their proprietary “2 Minute Medicine Syndication Engine” licenses this content to various entities including industry companies, libraries, and higher-education institutions like Harvard University.
Beyond news syndication, 2 Minute Medicine also has a textbook arm, the 2 Minute Medicine Physician Press, which publishes educational textbooks such as the “Classics in Medicine” and “The Classics in Radiology.” They have expanded into AI-powered tools for physicians, offering “EvidencePulse” and “HypeCheck.” EvidencePulse summarizes medical evidence from their physician-written reports and trusted journal databases, while HypeCheck evaluates health headlines and claims against scientific evidence to help separate medical hype from fact. These tools are designed to provide fast, focused workflows for evidence questions and claim verification, aiming to make medical evidence more usable for healthcare professionals.
2 Minute Medicine’s mission is to provide objective medical news, written by practicing physicians and health professionals, to inform and improve patient care. They emphasize rapid publishing, often releasing summaries of new medical studies on the same day as the original journal publication, and curate over 100 new reports monthly. Their content is read by over 10 million readers per month worldwide.
