Beyond the Lab: The Exciting World of Medical Writing (online)
February 3, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Are you someone passionate about teaching and effective communication? Have you explored positions in education, outreach, and science writing? This might surprise you, but you should also consider a career in the expanding field of medical writing.
Dr. Anique Olivier-Mason transitioned from graduate school in molecular biology, to leadership roles in education and outreach, to her current position at DynaMed where she writes evidence-based content for clinicians at the point of care. Moreover, most of her colleagues at DynaMed are not only fellow expatriates of academia who love science, collaboration, and communication — but also love a 9-5 schedule and the opportunity to work remotely (an option pre-COVID!). In this webinar, Dr. Olivier-Mason will discuss her own career pathway, job openings for medical writers at her company, and practical tips for PhDs interested in applying to these jobs.
