All specialist freelancers currently working in and around MedComms (specialist medical education, medical communications and medical publishing activities) were invited to participate in the MedComms Freelancing Barometer in January 2026. In this webinar, we’ll be joined by Eleanor Steele, Director of the MedComms Workbook, who ran the Barometer. She will dive into the Barometer results and explore the emerging trends shaping the future of freelancing in MedComms globally, with a spotlight on data from the Australasian respondents in comparison with other regions.
