How we work with medcomms

Extra capacity and scientific understanding for medcomms teams

Medcomms projects bring together scientific detail, audience needs, and client expectations, often across several deliverables and a busy review schedule. Having an external partner who understands the science and can take work from brief to delivery gives your team additional capacity where it is needed.

Hysterika supports medcomms agencies with scientific communication, content, and design for women’s health projects. We can work alongside your existing team during busy periods, contribute specialist expertise to a particular brief, or provide consistency across an ongoing account.

Working alongside your team

Every agency has its own way of working. We begin by understanding the brief, the audience, the source material, and how the work fits into the wider client project. We also agree responsibilities, deadlines, and review stages so everyone knows what to expect.

From there, we can help shape the communication and visual direction, develop the assets, and manage the agreed work through feedback and delivery. That might mean collaborating closely with your medical writers and account team, or taking responsibility for a defined set of deliverables within a larger programme.

Scientific understanding from brief to delivery

Hysterika combines biomedical understanding with scientific design experience. That helps us engage with the references, identify what an explanation needs to show, and make considered decisions about language, hierarchy, and visual detail.

Scientific accuracy runs through that process, from representing a mechanism clearly to retaining the context around a finding. Drafts are developed for your agreed scientific and client review, with attention to consistency across the materials.

We also bring project management and clear communication: confirming the scope, keeping you informed, and planning delivery around deadlines. Where turnaround needs to be fast, we agree what is achievable at the outset and identify the inputs needed to keep the work moving.

Flexible ways to work together

Support can take three forms:

• Ongoing partnership: an embedded creative partner who becomes familiar with your team, accounts, and ways of working.

• Project basis: specialist women’s health communication and design support for a defined project.

• One-off assets: a specific deliverable that forms part of a wider project your team is managing.

The scope can reflect the capacity you need, whether that is regular support or a focused contribution at a particular stage.

One publication and multiple assets

An example project for medcomms agencies could begin with one publication and Hysterika developing a conference poster, MoA illustrations, a visual abstract, a slide deck, and supporting figures.

Each visual asset explains the science for a specific audience and purpose. Working on the project as a whole allows us to establish consistent terminology and visual conventions, then adapt the level of detail and content for each format.

Hysterika can be an external partner for your agency team, specialising in women’s health and working within your existing project structure. If you need extra capacity, specialist input, or ongoing creative support, let’s talk.
