"As a trainee in rural Australia working in Aboriginal health, I hope to bring my own perspective to my writing and to demonstrate that careers in writing and academia can be done outside of major centres. The piece I have submitted illustrates my aim as a writer to bring human aspects of medicine for both doctors and patients alongside an evidence-based approach."
“As the winner of the AMWA Early Career Award I attended the conference in Melbourne. It was a fantastic event with inspiring and entertaining presentations, informative workshops, and plenty of opportunity for networking. If you’re in two minds, my advice is DO IT!!”
For those who attended the AMWA 2020 Special Virtual Event: 'Medical Writing and Communication During the COVID-19 Crisis'
on Thursday 19 November, we are sure you would agree that it was an invaluable two hours. The calibre of speakers and their learnings from
this unprecedented crisis were beyond our expectations. We are humbled by their willingness to give their personal time to share their
experience with us.
