The Femedic is Commissioning

The Femedic is a media and research platform for women’s health. They have a few commissions to fill before the end of this year. They have 2 content streams: Medical and Editorial. Their “Medical stream is content written by medical professionals and responds to questions that are clinical in nature.” They usually commission their medical writers to write on these topics rather than accept unsolicited pitches. Their “Editorial stream covers all aspects of health that are non-clinical in nature” which includes “social and political factors, identity, culture, discrimination, gender, lifestyle, and sharing particular women's experiences.” This content doesn’t require clinical knowledge or expertise to investigate. They pay £150 for a feature (700 to 900 words) and £100 for a personal essay (700 to 900 words). If interested, email your pitches to monica@thefemedic.com.
