Medical Writer

The Boston Globe is looking for an experienced medical writer to join an expanded medical-biotech team covering one of the world’s most vibrant and respected healthcare communities. Medical news in Boston often has national or even international repercussions, and the Globe needs a reporter who understands the science, the policy and the context of medical developments while never losing sight of the people most impacted by them.

The reporter will be expected to generate a steady stream of medical stories ranging from breaking dailies to features and accountability stories developed over longer time periods. The reporter will also be expected to contribute to a weekly special section devoted to medicine and biotechnology.
