A course by

Thary Jacob

Currently, I’m a motivated specialist medial writer at Emtex Life Science.

I studied biomedical sciences at the University of Ghent, mastered in immunology and did a PhD at the laboratory for veterinary animal sciences in Merelbeke on alphaherpesviral spread, triggered by interesting research along my path.

While I enjoyed doing this, I wanted to be closer to patients in my career path, which is why I chose to go to the industry. I wanted to be near the end, the patient, the finalized stage - to contribute to telling the story. Medical writer seemed the perfect job for me, and I haven’t had any regrets during the past 8 years that I’m a medical writer at Emtex.

Emtex offers worldwide professional medical writing and related services to the pharmaceutical (human & veterinary), biotech, medical device and other industries, CROs and academic institutions.

With over 20 years of experience in the field, we guarantee the best possible medical writing and related services.
