As a direct and sole result of the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and due to circumstances beyond our control, DIA announced last week that it has decided to change the format of the upcoming Medical Affairs and Scientific Communications meeting from “face-to-face” (in-person) to entirely virtual.

May 6-7: Forum

DIA’s Medical Affairs and Scientific Communications Forum is designed for medical affairs professionals, by medical affairs professionals. This forum provides a comprehensive understanding of the regulatory and compliance environment directly affecting the daily activities of medical affairs and scientific communication professionals. Made up of multiple general and breakouts sessions within three tracks covering medical communications, medical writing, and medical science liaisons, you can pick and choose which sessions to attend and create your own unique forum.

Medical Affairs professionals continue to take on more strategic leadership roles within their organizations. This year the theme for this forum is “Navigating the Future”. The program will delve into how Medical Affairs – Medical Information Professionals, Medical Writers, and Medical Science Liaisons – can best respond to the rapidly evolving landscape, and serve as a primary tactical leader in healthcare product development. Topics will cover how current technological, economic, and regulatory trends affect the vision, role, and influence of Medical Affairs.
