Though not in pharmaceuticals, I have been writing in an FDA regulated
medical device manufacturing firm. In general, I write manufacturing
process documentation, training manuals, and more recently, ISO 9000
compliant standard operating procedures. The work is fun, interesting and
challenging. I can say that the regulated nature of the medical device
industry presents unique opportunities for creativity. :)
BTW: This is my first post. I joined the list today and would like to say
hello to everyone!
