Meetings


The next Pacific-SW chapter meeting will be held in Carlsbad, CA at the Windmill Restaurant on Sunday, November 20, 2005 at 1:00 PM.

The program is titled "Perspectives on regulatory writing", and our speakers will be Robin Weaver and Jennifer Grodberg.  Robin's perspective is shaped by years of experience in the regulatory writing field.  She was director of medical writing at a major biotech/pharmaceutical company in San Diego.  Jennifer has recently transitioned into the field from a research and drug development background, so she can address what the learning curve is like for a newcomer.  No matter what sort of medical writing you do, chances are your works depends on or references regulatory materials at some point.  Here's a chance to broaden your understanding of how these important documents are written and submitted.

As always, the meeting offers opportunities to network with other medical writing professionals from the San Diego and Orange County areas.
