Digital engagement in Medical Affairs is broken, and you know it. You've got channels that don't connect, metrics that don't matter, and “innovations” that die in MLR review. It's not your fault. But it is fixable. In this episode of Transforming Medical Communications, Wesley Portegies is joined by digital strategist Alessandra Richardson to unpack the broken realities of digital engagement and how to build tools that actually work. This isn't about adding more platforms. It's about connecting the right ones, co-creating with the people you serve, and aligning teams from field to MLR to create measurable, meaningful impact. If you're tired of spinning in digital circles, this is your reset.

Most Medical Affairs leaders know the truth: Counting MSLHCP interactions is easy, but it's meaningless. Vanity metrics are holding Field Medical back. In this episode of Transforming Medical Communications, Wesley Portegies is joined by Denise Clark, Regional Medical Director of the Rare Disease team at Amgen, to show you what to measure instead and how to finally prove your team's real impact. Denise brings a bold, disruptive perspective: activity is not impact. This conversation gives you the modern Field Medical playbook. It's not about doing more. It's about doing what moves the needle.

She is passionate about medical education, scientific communication, and alternative medicines harnessing the body's innate systems and how aging, exercise and diet play a role in our health.   What We Discuss In This Episode: Dr. Shaina Cahill discusses her background in neuroscience and how that led her to focus on the gut microbiome and its connection to aging. She explains how the gut microbiome changes as we age, becoming less diverse and more inflammatory, and how this can impact brain health, immunity, and overall wellbeing. Maintaining a healthy, diverse gut microbiome through diet, exercise, and sleep may help slow the negative effects of aging. Dr. Shaina provides an overview of different gut health interventions. She notes that while probiotics can provide temporary benefits, making lasting changes requires focusing on prebiotics like fiber and fermented foods. She also discusses the potential of fecal microbiota transplants (FMTs) to treat various age-related diseases by replacing an unhealthy gut microbiome with a healthier one. Dr. Shaina comments on the shift towards more natural and holistic approaches in the medical field, including the increasing regulation and clinical trials of gut-focused therapies. She highlights exciting research on using FMTs to potentially reverse symptoms of conditions like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, and notes the challenges of navigating the regulatory landscape, especially the differences between Canada and the US.

From 18th century London to the promise of a global cure: the 200-year history of Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's, a neurodegenerative disorder most commonly characterized by tremors and other motor symptoms, is so complex, many medical professionals are starting to classify it as a group of diseases, rather than a single disease. In this episode, we explain those complexities, including: • The motor symptoms (e.g. cogwheel rigidity, bradykinesia) and non-motor symptoms (e.g. depression, sleep disorders) • How the industrial revolution may have brought about environmental factors which contribute to Parkinson's • The differences and similarities between Parkinson's and other neurodegenerative diseases, like Alzheimer's • How Parkinson's manifests in our brains • Why one nurse was able to detect Parkinson's through smell • The neurogenetics of Parkinson's, and the ethical quandaries of evolving genetic technology • Why lifestyle — nutrition, exercise, etc. — is so key to preventing and managing Parkinson's Joining us for this extensive conversation are three incredible guests: • Dr. Rachel Dolhun, Senior Vice President of Medical Communications at The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research • Dr. Michael Okun, evolutionary biologist, movement disorders specialist, and Director of the Norman Fixel Institute for Neurological Diseases • Dr. Matthew Farrer, neurogenetics expert and Professor Of Neurology at the University of Florida ‘Your Brain On' is hosted by neurologists, scientists and public health advocates Ayesha and Dean Sherzai.

Lorie Spence and Carolyn Pritchard, Co-Founders of Bridge Medical Communications, focus on developing tools and resources to support healthcare professionals and patients in collaborating and making informed treatment decisions. They emphasize the importance of patient-centered care, participatory medicine, and patient engagement to help address therapeutic challenges and barriers that impact patient outcomes. By applying healthcare communication strategies and providing practical and functional tools for use at the point of care, they are bridging the gap between providers and patients. Lorie explains, "Some tools we developed through Bridge Medical Communications through CONNECT really support healthcare professionals at the point of care. With the dynamic shift in the marketplace, with precision medicine and the need to engage the multidisciplinary team, we've developed tools like flow sheets that can be integrated into the EMRs to help assist and prompt through the steps of care from assessment of all the way to therapeutic onboarding and management."   Carolyn elaborates, "Connecting is ensuring that the patient's voice and that the patient is, as you mentioned, participating in their healthcare journey. So we're trying to support industry and stakeholders in developing these tools so they can collaborate with the patients. As we've mentioned, it might be a patient counseling tool, like a transition tool, these types of things provide continuity of care critical between the patient, the healthcare provider, and often, caregivers." #BridgeMedComms #PatientsVoice #PatientCentric #HealthcareProfessionals #ParticipatoryMedicine #HealthcareCommunications bridgemedcomms.ca Listen to the podcast here

Episode 72. Gertrude Nonterah is a Medical Communications professional at Thermo Fisher and the creator of The Bold PhD, where she helps PhDs navigate non-academic careers. Gee did a postdoc at UC San Diego, PhD at Temple University, and undergrad degrees at Virginia Commonwealth University and PennWest Edinboro. Check out her blog and newsletter at: www.theboldphd.com

Introduction In this episode of When Science Speaks, host Mark Bayer is joined by Dr. Gertrude Nonterah, founder of the Bold PhD.. Gertrude helps PhD students and academics transition into non-academic careers. She shares her expertise on career development, non-academic paths in the biomedical sciences, personal development, and medical communications. This episode is sponsored by the One for the Week newsletter, which provides valuable resources for boosting effectiveness in various professional settings. Guest Background Dr. Gertrude Nonterah is an expert in microbiology and immunology, having earned her PhD from Temple University. She also holds a BS in biology from Penn West Edinboro University and a BS in registered nursing from Virginia Commonwealth University.  The Importance of Curiosity in Choosing a Scientific Path Mark begins the conversation by asking Gertrude about her journey into science. Gertrude explains that while she excelled in various subjects during her school years, her father, a retired scientist, encouraged her to pursue science due to her exceptional language skills and overall competence. Growing up in Ghana, Gertrude's natural curiosity and love for reading further fueled her interest in understanding how things work, which eventually solidified her decision to choose the science track in high school. Transitioning from Biology to Nursing to a Ph.D. Gertrude discusses her educational journey, which initially involved pursuing a pre-med major in biology. However, the high cost of medical school led her to explore other options. After a friend recommended an accelerated nursing program, Gertrude decided to pursue nursing as it still allowed her to work in the medical field. Subsequently, she pursued a Ph.D. in microbiology and immunology, followed by a postdoctoral research position at the University of California, San Diego. Embracing a Career in Science Writing  After completing her postdoc, Gertrude realized that the academic path was not for her.

Today on the Gut Health Reset Podcast, we are discussing the emerging field of Fecal Microbiota Transplants with Dr. Shaina Cahill! The gut microbiome is a hot topic in the world of health and wellness, and for good reason: gut health has been linked to everything from weight loss to improved mood and cognitive function. So it's no surprise that researchers are looking for ways to optimize gut health. One promising area of research is fecal microbiota transplants (FMTs).FMTs involve transferring healthy gut bacteria from one individual to another. Stool from a healthy donor is transplanted into the gut of someone with an unhealthy gut microbiome. The donor stool contains a diversity of healthy gut bacteria that can help to restore balance in the recipient's gut. FMTs have been shown to be effective in treating conditions like Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and irritable bowel syndrome.While more research is needed to fully understand the potential of FMTs, there is promise that this therapy could one day be used to treat a variety of gut-related conditions.We will answer these questions:- What is a Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) and why would you want one?- How can FMT transform your gut health?- How are FMT donors vetted and screened?- Where can someone go for more information on FMTs?- And more!-Recommended Supplements: Binding Fiber Support - https://drannmariebarter.com/product/binding-fiber-support-capsules/ Wired But Tired - https://drannmariebarter.com/product/wired-but-tired/ -About Dr. Shaina:Shaina is a neuroscientist with an interest in alternative medicines that utilize the body's innate systems and a passion for medical education and scientific communication.

Measuring what really matters is often not straightforward, sometimes expensive, and always takes committed upfront thinking and planning. In this third and final podcast episode in this series, we will discuss measuring and improving the reach and engagement of scientific publications.

What do you need to consider when thinking about measurement, and what might this look like in practice? In this second podcast of a 3-part series, we will discuss considerations for measurable engagements in Medical Affairs.

As a western society, we have more and more visibility to how whole body health and whole choice health is critical to our individual and community health.

Measuring what really matters is often not straightforward, sometimes expensive and always takes committed up-front thinking and planning. In this first podcast of a 3-part series, we will address this question and discuss: The fundamentals of effective measurement techniques for Medical Affairs.

After a four week hiatus, episode 6 and the first of 2022 is finally here. It's worth the wait, I promise. Our guest is Alistair Barton, a Project Director in a Medical Communications agency. What does that mean I hear you cry?! Well, I didn't know either and it's probably not quite what you expected either. This conversation and Alistair's career is a peek behind the curtain into a sector that in many ways has been unavoidable through the pandemic. But for which very few of us really understand what's going on behind the scenes. This conversation explains some of this and shows the enormous lengths and thousands of people involved in every single medical trial. You can hear in Alistair's voice just what an incredibly warm and conscientious person he is. He describes himself as ‘paid to be a control freak' and runs a podcast called Picking at Perfection (more about that in this episode) so you can imagine the high standards he holds himself to. Despite this, Alistair was completely open about the highs and lows of the industry, which is truly refreshing. Just a heads up, there are a few moments of slightly glitchy audio, sorry for that!

It helps people discover us and spread the word about all these amazing career paths that could help someone start their own journey. Can't wait until the next episode?

Traditionally, most Medical Affairs interactions were in person, whether at scientific congresses, external education events, or through Field Medical interactions with healthcare providers and other thought leaders. Then during the pandemic, almost all interactions went virtual. And now we are emerging into a period of hybrid interactions — some external stakeholders prefer FTF, while others have seen the benefit in virtual engagements. In this podcast sponsored by Alucio, MAPS speaks with Medical Communications experts about this new hybrid environment and how content strategy can support the interactions of Field Medical, External Education, Medical Info and other functions within Medical Affairs.

Today we're revisiting the conversation with Dr. Dana Carpenter from Episode #61. It was an eye-opening interview introducing us to Medical Communications. Sometimes this term is used to refer to any company that employs medical writers, such as a CME producer. However, in this context, we're talking about the firms that provide marketing and advertising services to pharmaceutical and medical device companies. They create ad copy for j medical journals and online publications, presentations for sales personnel, support for live events, and multimedia presentations for regional and national meetings. This job can be very attractive, offering a great lifestyle, infrequent travel demands, opportunities for advancement, and the possibility of working remotely from home.

TOPICS Anne’s Career Path What are the biggest challenges women leaders/executives/entrepreneurs face today in the C-Suite? and how to overcome these challenges Breaking Bad Ceilings and Mindset Shifts What can corporate executives learn from successful entrepreneurs and vice versa? 5 Questions Segment Q1. We know that the most successful and happy people have a morning routine, what do you do each morning or evening that sets your day up for success? I got up at 5:30 today and I just take a minute and check in with myself, what is my heart, my gut telling me? Am I Centered, Open, Resilient, and Energized? It’s time for prayer. Then I’ll have coffee, go for a walk, some exercise and listen to some music or with an app. Journaling and remain open to ideas. Q2. What's your definition of Success? Being happy and feeling fulfilled. It may not come naturally as we are often hard on ourselves. We need people around us to see the good stuff and to be in a place of gratitude. Q3. What's your definition of Happiness? Happiness does not depend on circumstances or happenings. You can choose happiness.  Happiness for me is a sense of wellbeing and joy where my heart is light. Q4. What do you know now that you wish you would have known 10 years ago? I was fearless but not very cautious 10 years ago. The naivety caused me some hardships and lost contracts, I would be a little bit savvier and holding a little back and playing my cards right. Learning to say, "Let me think about that." Q5. What do you think is the biggest issue facing busy professionals today? Burnout. The burnout crisis was the pandemic before the pandemic.  RESOURCES Connect with Anne on LinkedIn or Twitter https://www.annearvizu.com/   Affluent Minds, Book by Dr. Anne Arvizu My FICO Healthcare Businesswomen’s Association https://www.biopharmadive.com/news/female-biotech-ceos-bio-efforts-diversity-goals/558604/ Join our email list and never miss another insight at https://www.pawsconsulting.com/shownotes Learn Strategies for Overcoming Overwhelm at https://www.pawsconsulting.com/overwhelm   “This program has been approved for 1 hour of continuing education credit for veterinarians and veterinary nurses/technicians in jurisdictions that recognize RACE approval.” Sign up for a free Strategy Session to overcome overwhelm and get unstuck at https://www.pawsconsulting.com/podcast  Thinking of running for office?  Get your copy of Candidate Survival Guide or Join one of Angela’s Campaign Accelerator Programs at https://www.pawsconsulting.com/candidate Connect with Angela at www.pawsconsulting.com or on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram @DemareeDVM.

In this episode of When Life Gives You Parkinson’s, you will learn when and how to switch neurologists and what doctor’s find annoying about you. It may be hard to believe, but doctors do not know everything about treating Parkinson’s disease. From ridiculous diagnosis stories, tragic treatment options, lack of empathy, the God complex and life altering misdiagnosis, many people with Parkinson’s have been through wringer and ultimately fired their neurologist.   The doctor-patient relationship is critical for treating Parkinson’s. “It’s really important to have someone you can talk to openly and honestly and who listens to you,” says Dr. Rachel Dolhun, a board certified movement disorder specialist and Vice President of Medical Communications for the Michael J. Fox Foundation. “Parkinson's is really all about expressing how things are going on a daily basis, how your medicines are or aren't working, and how new symptoms are coming up or how symptoms are changing.” In addition to Dr. Dolhun, this episode features conversations with a number of people with Parkinson’s including Dave Clark, Gil Thelan, and Jeanette Fisher-Pynn.

In this HRchat interview, we consider President Trump's plans to remove funding for the World Health Organization, what it will take to get us to the other side of the COVID-19 pandemic and when we can hope to get back to work. Our guest is Dr. Adrian Hyzler, Chief Medical Officer at HX Global, the US division of Healix International, a leading provider of international medical, security and travel assistance services. The organization works with multi-national corporations, NGOs and governments around the world to provide medical, security and travel assistance and help to fulfill duty of care obligations.There are a few things that will eventually get us all to the other side of the COVID-19 pandemic. Across the globe, everyone is hoping for an effective treatment or vaccine. The possibility of a viable vaccine that can be licensed and mass-produced sadly remains a distant prospect. There is hope that ongoing trials and research into potential treatments may produce successful drug therapy within a few months. Nevertheless, there are non-pharmaceutical interventions that will have an impact on when we will emerge from “quarantine fog,” and what it will be like when we do.Listen as Dr. Hyzler shares his thoughts on three key imperatives: Social Distancing, Personal Protective Equipment, and Testing. Dr. Adrian Hyzler qualified as a doctor at Sheffield University Medical School. He pursued a career in Emergency Medicine which led to an interest in travel medicine. Dr. Hyzler worked as a doctor on cruise ships before working with the Aboriginal Medical Services in remote area medicine in Western Australia. Upon returning to the UK, he worked in Occupational Health Medicine for Cable & Wireless Marine and completed his MBA. Dr. Hyzler joined Healix International as a flight doctor. He moved on to become a medical coordinating officer, then Senior Medical Officer, and is now the Chief Medical Officer at Healix, with an additional responsibility as Director of Medical Communications. Dr. Hyzler uses his expansive knowledge of medicine as it applies to travel and aviation. He plays a critical role in the medical management of patients who fall sick or are injured overseas. He has extensive experience with international aeromedical patient transfers and an excellent understanding of foreign healthcare systems worldwide.

#V3Podcast Episode 8 with Dr. Anne Arvizu and Guest Amy Ravi In this episode, I open the show talking about what’s going on in medical communications and medical affairs with the rise of COVID-19. My aim for this episode is to bring some digital or remote working solutions in Medical Affairs to light. Today, I bring colleague and fellow company owner, Amy Ravi on the show, to discuss creative ways for you to benefit right now. Hopefully the conversation we have sparks some ideas regarding things you can implement now to navigate change over the next few months and beyond. Are you losing staff or ramping up staff? Are you busier than ever or struggling in some way? Every company is different. We discuss virtual technologies and platforms that you can use regardless of your status. Ami Ravi is founder and CEO of Extendmed. We discuss client trends we are seeing, including the needs for consultants and virtual advisory boards. The biggest driver is needing a back-up plan for our functions that was due to take place. Amy says her clients are shifting meetings from in-person to reconstructing it virtually. They also need to gather insights beforehand because it’s harder to stay engaged online for eight hours. Instead, people are creating discussion boards with written content. It’s incredible how people are revamping and repurposing these meetings to make things work. That’s innovation in my opinion!  Next, I ask Amy to explain the essential elements anyone can use today to move advisory boards online. The first and most important step is to address the question of the crucial nature of an advisory board. Don’t be so product-focused – think about offering support to health care professionals and their patients. Virtual advisory boards can take on the tone of ‘overtime’. Think about how to engage with people over a series of months. Other ideas regarding engagements with HCPs and how that may change are discussed in the episode. We agree, the world will change drastically after the COVID-19 outbreak. Companies don’t need to continue getting together for every advisory board. Consultants can be based at home. Both actions will save long term costs and help redefine what’s essential for every business. Links below for both Extendmed and RxER Communications Corp for your convenience.

Coronavirus –Productivity & Continued Preparedness in Medical Affairs #V3Podcast Episode 7 with Dr. Anne Arvizu and Guest Dr. Suzanne Soliman In this episode, Anne provides excellent resources and links to use for knowledge base, as a means to keep up with true facts and help you and your loved ones say no to fear and false information. This podcast is meant to help healthcare professionals protect themselves and inform others. Almost every industry in the US and beyond at this point has made a massive shift and Anne shares valuable consulting advice regarding the re-direct toward a new normal in Medical Affairs, Medical Communications, Publications and Medical Information. Any company, especially those working on Coronavirus vaccines or antiviral solutions may contact RxER Communications at support@rxercommunications.com to schedule a free consultation and strategy call with Anne. Focus: The aim of today’s episode today, is providing guidance for the current changes in the Biotech industry. The tone of this planned podcast has shifted dramatically in the last week since taping on March 12.  Every day, and even every hour brings with it significant changes as we track. It’s time to not be caught up in the news, but be educated with the facts and forge our new normal. During the first half, Anne discusses how HCPs (Pharmacists, Physicians, Nurses) are affected and then opens up the second half of the show with a conversation with special guest expert, Dr. Suzanne Soliman, on continued prevention measures to help answer the most common questions we are all receiving right now from the lay public. The aim is to hopefully better equip, protect and prepare the health professional so they can better help and continue to prepare others. Although it is not mentioned in the show, our biggest risk factor right now in the US, is Millennials who continue to go out, travel and not take this seriously. It’s been said the virus rate will depend on them. It’s a time to stay home and distance yourself from other people as much as possible. Anne invited Suzanne Soliman, founder of the Pharmacist Mom’s Group, on the show to discuss preparedness; Suzanne earned her PharmD from the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Pharmacy (UIC-COP) in 2004. She completed a residency in primary care with an emphasis on education at Midwestern University Chicago College of Pharmacy and a teaching fellowship at UIC College of Medicine. Dr. Suzanne Soliman is a board-certified medical affairs specialist (BCMAS). Suzy worked as a clinical pharmacist, a medical science liaison (MSL) and national field team educator prior to becoming an Assistant Dean of Academic Affairs at UIC-COP. She most recently was an Associate Dean at Touro College of Pharmacy New York and an independent pharmacy owner. Currently, she is the Chief Academic Officer for the Accreditation Council for Medical Affairs (ACMA). More Key Points: It’s only been two weeks, but some of the recommended household items are completely gone. Some are being restocked or produced and will be back. There is still time to get some basics prepared. The time to pick up your medications is sooner rather than later. Get your refills NOW. Suzanne also discusses what’s still available and what can still be done. Should we get tested for Coronavirus? We need to keep our healthcare workers healthy, make sure your ER visit is valid. We can get more sick from the emergency room. Sometimes staying home is better than going to the hospital. Call ahead of time so they can have a self-quarantined room ready for you. In the US, your county will provide guidance on where to get tested. Is there a vaccine or other therapy coming out for the virus? There are various companies and treatments on top of the crisis as well as the production of a potential vaccine. Depending on the country that is trying to develop it, there are different methods currently being tested regarding treatment. You may be able to get the virus twice, because there seems to be a mutation. This makes creating a vaccine that much harder. Stay tuned, as Dr. Soliman explains when to keep your kids at home.

I enjoy speaking with physicians who have found a nonclinical career they love. I’ve seen that in life insurance medicine, teaching, and now in medical communications. The other aspect of this career that excites me is that it’s one in which you can express your creative side along with your scientific and technical side. Dr. Dana Carpenter is Senior VP, Director Medical & Scientific Affairs at CDM New York, a leading healthcare communications agency. She's an experienced OB/GYN, medical director and health communicator, combining expertise in medicine, management, and medical communications within the health communication/medical marketing arena. She's recognized as a subject expert and strategic consultant in women’s health, with additional marketing experience across numerous therapeutic areas. She obtained her medical degree from Rush Medical College in Chicago, and her residency at Albert Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia. Working with Dana as a guest on this show was a real pleasure. She has so much enthusiasm for what she does. She really loves her career. And she was so easy to work with. She graciously accommodated a scheduling hiccup as we were planning our interview. The very day that we were to connect, my 85-year-old father had to be hospitalized. He collapsed at home from what we later found out was a run of ventricular tachycardia. So we had to postpone our conversation. Once things settled down with my father, we rescheduled and had a great interview. I was thankful to Dana for being so accommodating. I knew that you’d be inspired by her story.  You can download a transcript and links to resources mentioned today by going to the show notes at vitalpe.net/episode061. You can also download a copy of the image on the show notes called MM&M’s Agency Solar System. It lists over 100 healthcare communications agencies and their holding companies. If you’re interested in learning more about this field, you should look at the graphic, select a few of the companies listed, and do some online research.

  In this episode, I talk to Steve Tiger, a long time, now retired, medical writer who has worked for many years at medical communications agencies. He talks about the fine balance that medical writers face of pleasing the pharma client as well as maintaining “pristine” ethics.

In 1976, when The People's Pharmacy® was originally published, it was one of the first books providing drug and health information to consumers. It went on to become a number one bestseller. Since then, Joe and Terry Graedon have gone on to write 18 additional books, one of which was a medical thriller co-authored with Tom Ferguson, MD (No Deadly Drug, Pocket Books, 1992).
