Mind the Gap: How to go viral in the HCP Community with Raj Patel

In Medical Communications, we’ve long operated under the assumption that scientific data naturally trickles down from academic thought leaders to the wider HCP community. However, this traditional model is failing to meet the needs of modern healthcare practitioners. In this episode of Transforming Medical Communications, Wesley Portegies is joined by Director of Worldwide Medical Oncology in Medical Communications at Bristol Myers Squibb , Raj Patel, to discuss innovative strategies for reaching community oncologists with scientific data through non-traditional channels and digital platforms. We’ll talk about: How to leverage non-peer-reviewed platforms to exponentially increase scientific content reach Why community HCPs consume scientific content differently from academic physicians A framework to leverage medical news websites while maintaining compliance How to optimize the journal selection strategy to increase content accessibility for community physicians The three-step approach to identify and engage with platforms where community HCPs already consume content
