Jodie Rothschild is principal of Rothschild Biomedical Communications and a proud member of both the American Medical Writers Association and Plain Language Association International. She has a background in hard science and clinical trials, but her passion is patient advocacy. She believes that the best way to advocate for patients is to help them advocate for themselves — and that the best way to do this is through patient education. Her goal is to use plain language to make sure that even difficult medical information can be understood by everyone.
