Headshots

A profile’s headshot is the main profile image that appears in the header and as the preview image that displays when the profile is included in lists.

In the Headshots section, you can manage a profile’s headshots. All previously submitted headshots are displayed in the section, along with the Approval Status and Updated Date of the image. The image displaying the status Accepted - Current is the one that is displaying as the profile’s headshot image.

To submit the first headshot or an updated one, click Add New. The YSM Photo team will review each headshot submission and either accept or reject it based on their guidelines for web profile photos.

If you are looking to set up an appointment to get an official headshot with the YSM Photo team, please review the photoshoot information on MyYSM.

In the Profile Header section of the Appearance page, you can configure the layout of the header section (shown below) and what information displays.

Header Banner

You have the ability to add a Banner image at the top of the profile (highlighted in yellow below).

Profile banner image

The header banner is an opportunity to personalize your profile with an impactful image that appears front and center. Some ideal types of images for banners are scientific imagery or photos that are directly relevant to your work at Yale. Because web profiles are published on a Yale website, there is an approval process before your image appears on the web.

Header Cards

You can also configure the Header Cards that appear in the header (highlighted in yellow below).

Header Cards are intended to emphasize the areas of the profile that are most important to the person and guide users to the corresponding sections for more information.

The card section can be configured in one of two ways:

• Static: 1-3 cards are displayed and any combination can be chosen.

• Carousel: 1-4 card categories can be chosen, each displaying 1-3 cards in a carousel that users can scroll through.

Reordering Sections and Section Headers

There are 7 sections that can display on the YSM profile:

• About

• Research

• Achievements

• Teaching

• Clinical Care

• Links and Media

• Get in Touch

These sections can be re-ordered, and each section has a customizable header. If a section has no content, or has been set to not display, it will not show up on the public profile.
