This article presents an overview of open access initiatives by researchers, journals, government bodies, and regulatory authorities. Open access initiatives are valuable to the scientific community and have increased the amount of clinical research information available to the general public. Sharing this information in a manner that is understood by those without scientific training is important. This article discusses plain language summaries, their requirements and benefits, and what additional steps should be taken to improve transparency in clinical research.

Trust is built gradually, and it is easily threatened, particularly in relation to pharmaceutical research. The potential for open access publishing and plain language summaries to contribute to improved trust in pharmaceutical research was discussed by experts at the Open Pharma Satellite Symposium, held at the Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers Annual Conference and Awards 2022 in Manchester, UK. No single endeavour will win public trust overnight, but removing paywall barriers between all readers and sources of trusted information, and publishing research summaries that are written in accessible, plain English are important steps towards fostering greater trust in research. Both endeavours also have the potential to help the public make informed decisions about their health.

The scholarly record is an ever-evolving network – or graph – of truth assertions on which each discipline bases its discussions, and against which each discipline measures its progress. But what if the scholarly record is missing a significant number of truths? In this article, you will learn about the scholarly record, what it comprises, and what’s missing. You’ll discover that the volume – and value – of what’s missing, called grey literature, has been.

Newton wasn’t the first to notice the importance of building on the works of others. Five hundred years earlier, Bernard of Chartres is quoted as saying “We see more and farther than our predecessors, not because we have keener vison of greater height, but because we are lifted up and borne aloft on their gigantic stature”. It seems to me that the collective noun for giants’ shoulders should be a “scholarly record” since this comprises “an ever-evolving network – or graph – of truth assertions” 1 “upon which each discipline bases its discussions, and against which each discipline measures its progress”. 2 Some go further to suggest the scholarly record can even frame the identity of an institution. 3 If we agree that a giant’s shoulder is worth standing upon, how do we ensure that their truth assertions are collected and preserved to ensure that we can indeed see further than our predecessors and measure progress?

In 2021, EMWA members were asked to participate in a survey about their current salary and compensation. The survey included questions on some of the factors that typically influence earnings, such as education, geographic location, level of experience, and type of employer. Four hundred EMWA members responded. The aim of this article is to provide salary and compensation information for company employees and freelancers who are medical writers and communicators based on the responses of the EMWA members who completed the survey.
