Acumen Medical Communications

Founded in 2016 by industry veterans Justin McLaughlin (formerly Director of Medical Writing) and Dr. Virginia Kelly (formerly Senior Medical Director), Acumen was born from a vision to deliver unparalleled quality in regulatory writing and publications. Our founders, recognizing a significant gap in expert-level writing and editing services in the market, established Acumen with a commitment to excellence, integrity, and transparency.

Over the years, Acumen has carefully expanded its team and service offerings, ensuring that growth is measured and aligned with our core values. We take pride in our rigorous training and vetting process, which ensures that our team of medical writers and editors are not only highly experienced but also deeply understand the nuances of clinical development. Our writers are trained to be clinical developers, possessing a broad skill set that spans various document types and therapeutic areas.

Our unique team approach sets Acumen apart. We foster collaboration across internal functional areas, including medical writing, editorial, quality control (QC), and publishing, to ensure the delivery of top-tier documents. Our track record speaks for itself: we now employ over 60 full time and contract professionals, including medical writers, editors, physicians, project managers, and clinical scientists, in our support of over 100 active clients.
