New drugs, medical devices, clinical research, and techniques are transforming the practice of Western medicine. This can be owed to the face-paced progress of academic environment, as well as the rise of computers and the Internet, subsequently resulting in the adaptation of electronic references to assist the hospital-based decisions that have to be taken by the caretakers.

Medical resources are more expensive to create and maintain than other types of Internet libraries. Because of these increased costs, almost all of the day’s best online medical resources still depend on advertising revenue or subscription fees to fund their operations.
The ATLAS platform is aimed to regulate the issues that the caregivers in Western medicine face while accessing critical knowledge. There has been a massive shift in the way we access information and that has been towards Subscription-based online resource model. Hence, ATLAS has come up with an open-source online medical platform that will act as a dictionary with peer-reviewed information available free of charge worldwide.

The Ecosystem
They have created a simple user interface in order to make accessibility simple for the users, and especially the one’s who are new to the blockchain technology. The primary aim to remove the one issue that is predominantly existing in the medial industry- cutting-edge medical knowledge has been separated by money from its physicians and the general public. The ATLAS token will be used as a form of credit token that will incentivize creators of articles and there will be subsequent algorithms useful to medical professionals. If there is a scenario of continuing medical education (CME), the medical token can be used to access or continue the education.

Atlas has adopted two methods to directly benefit the project. The first pathway is that the direct donations of ATLAS will be enabled for verified creators of medical articles. The contributors of these articles will receive compensation for their time and effort. The second pathway is where medical professionals accessing the site will be able to transfer ATLAS tokens to PeerAtlas in order to continue their education in medical (CME). To be brief, CMEs will be incentivized worldwide for their use of the PeerAtlas platform and this will be in accordance with the professional licensing authorities of the countries that they belong to. This is a top methodology followed by subscription-based medical resources.

The NEO blockchain platform primary has been used as it provides superior functionalities than it’s competitors. Some of them are- Aiming for Regulatory Compliance where it will give an option to audit these digital assets and transactions. With NEO, the Processing Transactions is much faster than others that are available in the market. They will also be implementing Superior Consensus Mechanism in order to improve the features that come along with Proof of Work (e.g. Bitcoin) and Proof of Stake.

Conclusion
The ambition and the core aim of PeerAtlas is to ensure that the platform is seeing immense growth in the modern techniques and knowledge in healthcare sector worldwide. Their aim is to merge the features that they can utilize from digital assets, digital identity, and smart contracts to establish a secure blockchain that is accepted by enterprises and governments across the world.
