AMWA Conference Offers More Value Than Ever

The American Medical Writers Association (AMWA) holds its 68th annual conference this year in Louisville, KY from October 23-25, 2008. The focus of this year’s conference, which draws attendees from across the country, is Setting the Pace.

The keynote speaker is Nanette K. Wenger, MD, Professor of Medicine, Emory University. Dr Wenger will be discussing women’s heart health. Coronary heart disease in women is one of Dr Wenger’s major clinical and research interests.  In 2003, over 45 million American women were over the age of 50. As the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) increases with age, raising awareness of coronary heart disease for women is increasingly vital, and physicians can play an important role.

This year’s AMWA conference is hosting a record 72 roundtable breakfast sessions, where delegates can, over breakfast, exchange ideas and experiences on topics ranging from medical translation to Word macros, freelance writing for the medical device industry to plain language writing for patients, writing effective case studies to amending clinical trial protocols.
The Indiana chapter of the AMWA is a sponsor of DocTrain Life Sciences 2008. Their site provides information for AMWA members in the Hoosier state.
