As your new President, I would like to take this opportunity to thank outgoing President Dr Justin Coleman for his tireless hard work, dedication and commitment to our association over the past five years. Fortunately (for myself in particular) Justin will still be involved in AMWA – though he has decided to step down from the Executive Committee. We wish him all the best and are looking forward to reading the copious amounts of writing he will be producing with his newly-found free time!

In discussion with Dr Ben Bravery - 9 February 2023 in Sydney

You are invited to hear from Dr Ben Bravery, the author of 'The Patient Doctor', on Thursday 9 February 2023 from 6pm - 8pm. This event is hosted by the Australasian Medical Writers' Association and is open to all.

Ben will be talking about his experience as a cancer patient, and how this has impacted how he now interacts with the healthcare system as a doctor. Ben is a strong advocate for putting the patient at the heart of healthcare. This event will also be an opportunity to network and socialise with medical writers.
