MDF11 – Introduction to Medical Devices
Who it is for
This workshop is for new/aspiring medical writers who are interested in writing for medical devices, or experienced medical writers, who usually work in medical communications or in regulatory (drug development) and want to learn about medical devices.
What it covers
This is an introductory workshop, so the only ones who will not benefit from it are those who already work in medical devices and have an understanding of the processes and documents involved.
To give attendees an overview of what is a medical device, the classification rules, regulatory landscape (focusing primarily in the European Union), and the main documents that medical writers are involved with. The workshop will also explore the role of the medical writer, the necessary skills and possible challenges to overcome when working in the medical devices area.
Diana Ribeiro, MPharm, is a pharmacist by training. Having worked for 10+ years in hospital and community pharmacies, she then transitioned to medical writing in late 2019. Working across a number of therapeutic areas, she has written many different types of documents, both in medical communications and the regulatory field. In 2020, she started working in medical devices, authoring clinical evaluation reports under the medical devices directive and the medical devices regulation (MDR), as well as other documents in this area.
