In this webinar, on #MedComms Day 2024, we'll meet Founding Directors who have recently stepped outside the major networks to launch their own agencies, each with the intention of reshaping the MedComms landscape in uniquely distinct ways.

Our panelists will explore the challenges of striking out independently, and how they are addressing the evolving needs of their clients in a volatile market, incorporating the latest technologies and setting new standards in the field.

Ensuring Integrity in Scientific Publications in the face of AI
Wednesday May 22, 2024
Wednesday May 22, 2024
This podcast is a recording of a live #MedComms webinar.
Instances of peer-reviewed publications now appearing in their final published form with obvious AI prompts still included in the text, have sparked lively social media discussion about the basic integrity of the scientific publications process. Is it in fact fit for purpose? In this webinar, we will talk about the practicalities involved in publishing a peer-review paper and who is involved in what steps. We'll discuss how AI tools are already being used by authors, other contributors, peer-reviewers and the production teams themselves. We'll highlight the pitfalls and we'll think about how these tools can be built into the process while maintaining the high level of trust in the integrity of scientific publishing that is so important for everyone. On our panel we will be joined by Laura Dormer (Becaris Publishing), Hamish McDougall (SAGE Publishing) and Jonathan Patience (Taylor and Francis). And we answer questions from the audience.

Wednesday Feb 14, 2024
This podcast is a recording of a live #MedComms webinar.
In this webinar we are reconvening our regular panel of specialist publishers. Clare Cook (Senior Editor at Adis, Springer Healthcare), Hamish McDougall (Publishing Solutions Manager at SAGE Publishing), Jonathan Patience (Head of Publication Development at Taylor and Francis) and Joanne Walker (Co-Founder and Publishing Director at Becaris Publishing) share insights into how generative AI in particular is impacting the business of journals publishing and the work processes. What tools are being used already? What guidance is being issued? Are we seeing more benefits or dangers? None of us are AI experts. This discussion is about the daily practicalities and questions that are arising around managing specialist content in the face of rapidly developing uptake of AI tools. And we answer questions from the audience.
It should be of interest to anyone who is working in and around MedComms, or who is wanting to join the business.
