Nude Mice
—Cynthia L. Kryder, MS, CCC-Sp
Even though Cyndy had a quasi-medical background, when she first began working in a hospital she was confused. It sounded as though everyone was speaking a different language, one she didn’t understand. And when she became a freelance medical writer, despite her medical background, understanding what her clients were talking about was even harder! This book inThe Accidental Medical Writer series is meant to serve as a tool so that when your clients sound as though they are speaking Greek (and they may well be!), you can figure out what they’re saying and translate it into accurate text for any audience, in any setting.
The Org Directories
—Cynthia L. Kryder, MS, CCC-SP and Brian G. Bass
The ORG Directory may be the most complete and comprehensive directory of its kind! Comprising 5 separate directories, the ORG Directory includes more than 800 listings of medical, nursing, dental, allied health, and complementary and alternative medicine specialty societies. Use the directory to decipher acronyms, assist you in your work, and expand your client base. The ORG Directory is an ebook, so it’s searchable, and every listing has a link to that society’s website.
