I help healthcare and life-science companies turn complex biomedical science into clear, credible communication.

Abdul Rehman

Research-trained. Writing-focused. A background in biological research, translated into scientific communication for clinicians, patients, and the businesses that serve them.

Scientific expertise doesn't automatically translate into clear communication.

Genomics platforms, diagnostics, oncology research, and drug-discovery tools are often built by people who understand the science deeply — but explaining that science to patients, clinicians, or investors is a different skill. When the gap goes unaddressed, technical audiences get content that's too shallow, and general audiences get content they can't follow. My work sits in that gap: understanding the evidence first, then writing for whoever needs to act on it.

What I can produce

A focused set of deliverables, not an unlimited menu.
01

Medical & Scientific Articles

Oncology and immunology articles · disease-focused patient education · research-based long-form content, sourced from primary literature.
02

Scientific Website Content

Technology and service pages · product/service explanations · scientific landing pages and FAQs for biotech, diagnostics, and health-tech sites.
03

Scientific & Biomedical Explainers

Bioinformatics, molecular diagnostics, biomarker, and drug-discovery explainers.
04

Scientific Thought Leadership

LinkedIn and founder commentary, research-based educational posts, and company-page scientific content.

Science, before the sentence

A content writer can structure an article. A scientist understands the material. My positioning sits at the intersection of both — not a claim that I'm the only person who can do this, but that this combination is my particular advantage.
RESEARCH BACKGROUND

Hands-on research in immunology, cancer biology, and ecology, including a presented poster on renal cell carcinoma biomarkers.

BIOINFORMATICS

Working knowledge of molecular docking, ADMET analysis, and PyMOL, plus Python and Pandas for data work.

PUBLISHED WRITING

Co-authored two peer-reviewed book chapters and an independent 30-page research report.

COMMUNICATION

Translates clinical and computational concepts for patients, clinicians, and business audiences — in plain, accurate language.

Work

Early-stage portfolio — a mix of self-initiated pieces and CV-listed writing samples, labeled accordingly.
Self-initiated

Navigating IVF and Infertility in Pakistan

A patient-facing guide covering infertility stigma in Pakistan, PCOS and male-factor infertility, the IVF medication timeline, and local cost realities — written for couples starting the process.

What Is Immunity? A Simple Guide to How Your Body Fights Infection

A general-audience explainer breaking down innate and adaptive immunity, the body's physical and chemical barriers, and the role of white blood cells, lymph nodes, and bone marrow.

EDUCATION

B.Sc. in Zoology: Wildlife and Fisheries
University of Agriculture, Faisalabad — EQF Level 6. Coursework in cell biology, molecular biology, genetics, bioinformatics, and developmental biology.

I came to scientific writing through research, not around it. My background is in biological sciences — immunology, cancer biology, and ecology — with hands-on training in bioinformatics tools like molecular docking, ADMET analysis, and Python-based data work.

Along the way, I found that the harder problem wasn't generating the science — it was communicating it clearly to the people who needed to understand it, whether that was a patient, a clinician, or a research audience. That's the work I do now: understanding the evidence, then writing for whoever has to act on it.
