This podcast is a recording of a live #MedComms webinar.
On 31 January 2024 we ran a #MedComms Webinar, Are we facing a new era in MedComms medical writing?, as a free-wheeling panel discussion. It attracted a large international crowd and generated a lot of questions from the audience that we couldn't adequately deal with at the time. In this webinar, we are reconvening the same panel to address some of those specific questions. Once again we are joined by Liz Stutz (Product Owner, Medical Writing Services, Digital Intelligence & Operations at Roche), Annette Keith (Executive Scientific Director at Langland) and Eleanor Steele (aka The MedComms Mentor, Specialist Trainer). And we answer more 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.

This podcast is a recording of a live #MedComms webinar.
MedComms is not what it was 10 years ago. Clients, audiences, deliverables, working practices have all been changing. Technology has changed everything and generative AI is now promising to dramatically accelerate the pace of change. In this webinar, we reflect on how these various developments are affecting the daily working life of medical writers who work in and around MedComms, how they change the skills that writers might need to succeed and how careers in the future might play out differently. Our panelists are Liz Stutz (Product Owner, Medical Writing Services, Digital Intelligence & Operations at Roche), Annette Keith (Executive Scientific Director at Langland) and Eleanor Steele (aka The MedComms Mentor, Specialist Trainer).

This podcast is a recording of a live #MedComms webinar.
In January 2023, we were joined on a #MedComms webinar by Martin Delahunty (Inspiring STEM Consulting), Katja Martin (medtextpert), Stephen Mott (PharmAdvisor) and Avishek Pal (Novartis) for an informal discussion about the possible implementations of a brand new AI tool, ChatGPT, within and around MedComms. It's fair to say we had little idea at the time of the rapid development and the excitement that was coming. There has certainly been a great deal of discussion about AI generally, and generative AI in particular, across the MedComms community in the 12 months since. In this webinar, we are reconvening our panel to reflect on progress in these past 12 months and to discuss what is actually happening in the real world. What stage are we now at on the hype cycle for new technologies? Inflated expectations? Disillusionment? Enlightenment? Enhanced Productivity? And we answer questions from the audience
