WHAT'S HAPPENING - [view previous events]

MedComms Networking has evolved from what was largely UK-based activity but now embraces a global community of medical communications specialists, and we welcome participation by anyone working in or around MedComms and the global Pharma industry, anywhere in the world. I am particularly keen to see the development of activities led by other individuals and specifically based in other regions so if you would like to act as a local organiser for - or you would like to provide funding for - such events please contact me directly. I'm always happy to chat and all feedback is welcome, so give me a shout anytime or please post your thoughts to the MedComms Networking Linkedin group for discussion. Scroll down to see details of activities that are planned for the coming months. Meantime, you can see reports of all the previous meetings here.

WEEKLY #MEDCOMMS WEBINAR Early and adaptive strategic planning for successful pharma product launch Venue: Global Date: 12.00 midday-13.00 UK time, Wednesday 29 March 2023 This discussion will take a look at areas where early strategic planning and decision-making can have a huge impact when it comes to the success and ease of launch and beyond. We'll explore what currently impedes early strategic thinking and our thoughts on what could be done to address this. In particular, we'll put a spotlight on why getting ahead is particularly relevant in the emerging areas of cell and gene therapy where we're working in relatively unchartered waters. Finally, as we all know from recent years, we need to expect the unexpected and plan for every eventuality. We'll therefore touch on adaptive strategy and the feasibility of implementation in pharma. Our panellists will be James Aird, Jess Choi, Steve North and Manca Povsic from AMICULUM. And we answer questions from the audience. [PROGRAMME AND REGISTRATION DETAILS]

WEEKLY #MEDCOMMS WEBINAR AI tools for medical writers - turkeys voting for Christmas? Venue: Global Date: 12.00 midday-13.00 UK time, Wednesday 05 April 2023 In this webinar, we will be discussing AI as it relates to the medical writing sphere, from ChatGPT through to the current tools on the market. We will be cracking out our crystal balls and thinking about where this brave new world of automation can lead medical writers - both on the regulatory side and on the medcomms side, and ultimately we will be asking if using AI is an opportunity or a threat for medical writers. Our panellists today are Lisa Chamberlain James (Senior Partner), Barry Drees (Senior Partner) and Jamie Norman (Chief Product Officer), all from Trilogy Writing & Consulting.

WEEKLY #MEDCOMMS WEBINAR Making a success of freelancing in MedComms Venue: Global Date: 12.00 midday-13.00 UK time, Wednesday 12 April 2023 In this webinar our panellists are all specialist MedComms freelancers. We'll be joined by Julia Davies, Vicki Evans, Odel Soren and Kathryn White. We'll talk about how MedComms is an area that offers significant opportunity to 'go it alone', with plenty of variety in terms of the type of projects and therapeutic areas. However, working as a freelancer means running a business. It's not enough to simply be good as a Writer, Editor, Project Manager, Account Director and so on. You'll also be responsible for sales, marketing, IT support, training, finance and more. And these are particularly challenging times. So, what does it take to be a successful freelancer in MedComms? And we answer questions from the audience. [PROGRAMME AND REGISTRATION DETAILS]

WEEKLY #MEDCOMMS WEBINAR Omnichannel And Content Creation: The Challenges For Medical Writing And Content Planning Venue: Global Date: 12.00 midday-13.00 UK time, Wednesday 26 April 2023 This discussion will look at practical implementation of omnichannel for medical communications; a hot topic now as Medical Affairs teams are increasingly seeing the value of omnichannel methodology. We'll examine challenges we know many of our clients have with this shift: from grasping the fundamental objectives of omnichannel, to the need to subtly apply technology to the traditionally personal, face-to-face MSL role. Along the way we'll address the expanding remit of medical writers, efficient content creation and targeting, integrating digital channels, and the lessons we can bring over from commercial best practice. We promise a jargon-free exploration of real-world solutions to real world problems. Our panellists will be Melissa Fung, Malvika Katarya and Frank Fisher from AMICULUM. And we answer questions from the audience. [PROGRAMME AND REGISTRATION DETAILS]
