Event Overview
Join Jennifer Obel, MD (prior freelance journalist for the Washington Post and Spokesperson for ASCO) for a hands-on training for DFA advocates who want to learn how to use patient stories and personal experiences to create and pitch compelling op-eds and letters to the editor. Editors from DFA’s Op-Ed Review Committee will offer you a chance to test and discuss your material and outline and hone the article for greatest publication success and to see if you can influence their point of view. All experience levels are welcome, you just need to come with an idea that you want to write about.
