“There are four basic premises of writing: clarity, brevity, simplicity and humanity.” – William Zinsser
—————
I can write:
continuing education materials including case studies, slide kits, website content and CD/DVD content
congress and symposia-related materials including abstracts, scientific posters, invitations, programme books and conference proceedings
academic and regulatory writing including journal contributions, primary papers and clinical study reports
technical and specifications writing including programming instructions, flowcharts and spec documents
patient and lay resources including disease information booklets, product manuals, newsletters and press releases
In addition, I take pride in being able to rapidly familiarise myself with new topic areas and writing what’s required for any given audience. Below is a selection of some of the topics I have been involved with:
Cardiovascular (hypertension, dyslipidaemia)
Haemanitics
Hepatology (hepatitis B)
Infectious diseases (influenza, pneumococcal disease)
Medical assisting
Metabolic (diabetes, obesity)
Oncology (cervical cancer)
Ophthalmology (glaucoma)
Pyschiatry (anorexia, bipolar disorder, depression)
Rheumatology (rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis)
Sports medicine
Urology (overactive bladder)
Vaccination
My chief aim in any project I undertake is written clarity, both for the client and for the target audience.
