Communicating data using words and visuals at the Australasian Medical Writers Association conference, 2023
Biotext was a silver sponsor of the 2023 Australasian Medical Writers Association (AMWA) conference, held in Auckland in August 2023. At AMWA’s request, we put together and presented a 1-hour workshop on presenting data. The workshop looked at tips and tricks for using graphs and tables, and gave pointers on terminology, accessibility and language when writing about data.

We provide a brief introductory workshop and then work directly with attendees on their own writing examples and projects.
