Medical Writing

When the context moves from data collection to the communication of the science:
It is what you do with data that is science – the interpretation you make, the story you tell. (Mimi Zeiger, Essentials of Writing Biomedical Research Papers 2000)

At VI Research, we are passionate about science and story-telling. Whether it be a scientific publication, a regulatory document or a conference poster, we provide clear, effective and accurate communication for a wide range of audiences. We like to keep the reader interested, we cut the clutter, dive into the detail and deliver punchy take-home messages.

What is Medical Writing?

Medical writing forms an integral part of the all-important drug and medical device development process. It plays a vital role in communicating health and medicine-related information in a clear and appropriate manner to the target audience. It may take many forms, ranging from medical journalism, medical education, medical marketing of healthcare products, publication/presentation, research documents and regulatory documents.
