Thinking about your career after completing your PhD or postdoc? Wondering what to do if the bench isn't for you? If so, please join us to learn about potential careers and a PAID internship in medical and scientific communication.

Whitsell Innovations (https://www.whitsellinnovations.com/) is a certified woman-owned, full-service medical and scientific writing company headquartered in Chapel Hill NC with writers in 11 US states. Ann Winter-Vann, Senior Writer at WI (and Duke CMB PhD), will speak on, "The Scope of Medical Communications." The presentation will provide an overview of careers for PhDs who are interested in combining their scientific acumen and writing skills. She will address medical writing for pharmaceutical, biotech, and device companies, including the documentation required for submissions to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) during the pre-clinical and clinical development process. The presentation will provide an overview of potential careers for scientists that combine scientific acumen and writing skills. She will also address how industry clients use medical writers to share clinical data in manuscripts, training materials, and presentations.

Dr. Winter-Vann will also discuss the WI Internship Program (https://www.whitsellinnovations.com/careers/). Now in its 8th year, this opportunity is an 18-month, part-time, paid internship available to researchers who are interested in a career in medical writing.
