As digital audiovisual media become dominant in biomedical communications, the skills of human interface design and the technology of client-server multimedia data networks will underlie and influence virtually every aspect of biocommunications professional practice. The transition to digital communications media will require financial, organizational, and professional changes in current biomedical communications departments, and will require a multi-disciplinary approach that will blur the boundaries of the current biocommunications professions.
