Cool Stuff from the Land of Medical Science Liaisons
Tuesday, November 22nd, 2016There’s some cool stuff going on in the world of Medical Science Liaisons, of which I still watch and support! In fact, I need to address this cool gig in a pharmacy podcast in 2017…I’ve promised the audience this, and I will be delivering on my promises.
In the meantime, here are some things going on in the land of the MSLs:
1. *EyeforPharma: Reinventing Medical Affairs – As the role changes, so too does the emphasis of the role. Check out the report at Eye for Pharma about this.
2. The Annual MSL benchmarking Survey – TriNet Pharma is running its annual MSL survey right now. Contact them and fill it out if you’re a MSL.
3. Medical Affairs Board Certification – ACMA is now offering BCMAS – the Board Certified Medical Affairs Specialist. I’ll be the first one to admit that I know the least about this – but I will be checking it out in 2017 for the MSL masses.
Pharmacists are still a huge part of field based medical affairs…and I think there’s now more opportunity than ever in this arena. More to come on it in 2017, and if you love drug info and communication as a pharmacist, PhD, or MD, consider this role for yourself.
