Abstract

Editorial

Welcome to the OOOO section of Medical Writing.

Whilst members who attended the free lancers’ networking meetings in The Hague (November 2015) or Munich (May 2016) may have noticed the recent changing of the guard at the Freelance Business Forum, for those who did not, please allow us to introduce ourselves as Julie and Satyen, the new Freelance Advocates.
