WHAT'S HAPPENING - [view previous events]

After 18 years of fun and games, I'm wrapping up my #MedComms activities. Please be patient while some changes roll out: The MedComms Workbook is now run by Eleanor Steele, to connect medical communications and medical education agencies with specialist freelancers. It's been confirmed, the 14th annual #MedComms Day will be 25 June 2025 and these celebrations will now be led and coordinated by the global team at The International Society for Medical Publication Professionals (ISMPP). The FirstMedCommsJob service will be relaunched in March by Tom Davies and Lindsey Heer from pobl. Many of you will already know them from the successful online #MedComms careers festivals that they ran in 2024. More changes are coming. Watch this space or contact me directly for details. PLEASE NOTE I'm not quite ready to retire yet! I will be developing NetworkPharma.tv to reach a wider pharmaceutical industry audience, building on its strong roots in medical communications, medical education and medical publishing. Feedback, comments and contributions are welcomed. It's been fun, but it's time for change. Good luck in 2025, everyone! Meanwhile, I am ending my current MedComms activity by supporting one more important project. The #MedComms Freelancing Barometer Survey 2025 runs until 31 January 2025 and the results will be freely available for everyone in February. We will run an EXTRA #MedComms webinar to discuss those results on 13 February, so please help spread the word. Go #MedComms!
