Ever thought about Medical Writing as a career? If you want to get away from scientific research, but still use your scientific knowledge and skills, it might be worth considering a career in Medical Communications.

To get started in Medical Communications, you will ideally have a science degree or background in Medical Communications. Medical Writers work as part of inter-disciplinary teams and, in some cases, with people outside of their company. You need to be comfortable communicating with people from a range of backgrounds, and you will need very good writing and/or account management skills depending on the role.
