Introducing a new EMWA Special Interest Group: Communicating with the Public Contributors: Sampoorna Rappaz (author), Lisa Chamberlain James (section editor) The Communicating with the Public Special Interest Group (CwP SIG) held its first Meet and Share session as an open interactive forum on October 25, 2022. The session consisted of presentations by SIG Chair Lisa Chamberlain James and panellists and SIG volunteers Sara Ferrão, Adeline Rosenberg, and myself, followed by a thought-provoking discussion with an audience of about 30 attendees. Lisa introduced the SIG and was the session moderator. The panellists gave a brief overview of the types of public-facing documents, spread across the main specialisations within medical writing, that a professional medical communicator could be expected to develop. The objective of the session was to formally introduce the SIG, to share what we want to do, and to get input from the audience to help refine our aims.
