AI Pill #033: AI Search String → PubMed Check
An AI-generated search string deserves a test run. PubMed’s Search Details shows how the query was translated, which helps you spot a search that is behaving differently from what you intended.
The AI Pill Drops
Practical AI workflows, tools, and copy-paste prompts for pharma and medcomms teams.
AI Pill #032: Acronym Soup → Checked Glossary
The same abbreviation can mean different things across specialties. A glossary for an HCP deck needs definitions from the actual source, with unresolved terms left visible.
AI Pill #031: Favorite Prompt → Small Test Set
Before your team reuses a prompt for HCP education outlines, try an abstract with no follow-up period or conflicting endpoint wording. A tidy input is only one test case.
AI Pill #030: Retrieved Text → Instruction Check
A copied research page can contain instructions aimed at an AI: ignore the brief, reveal a file, open a link. A source-synthesis workflow should treat those words as document content.
AI Pill #029: Dense Paragraph → Plain Meaning
An HCP explainer for a specialist may need a different vocabulary for a generalist. Simplifying the language must preserve the endpoint, population, uncertainty and limitations.
AI Pill #028: Source Folder → Freshness Register
A reference on an HCP education page can still open while the facts around it have changed. Keep the date you checked a source alongside the date it was published.
AI Pill #027: Big Percentage → Clear Denominator
Before turning a study statistic into slide copy, check the denominator. Fictional example: 2 in 100 becomes 1 in 100. That is a 50% relative decrease and a 1-percentage-point absolute decrease.
AI Pill #026: Polished Copy → Qualifier Check
A medical slide can become less accurate during a polish. Watch the small words: may, some, exploratory, associated, in this population. A rewrite must preserve what the endpoint and source actually support.
AI Pill #025: Task Idea → Data-Safe Trial
Want to test AI on an agency review workflow? Start with a fictional HCP education brief and invented reviewer comments. You can test the instructions before a real client document goes anywhere.
AI Pill #024: Loose Ends → Clean Handoff
Turn project context, decisions, files, and open risks into a handoff the next person can actually use.
AI Pill #023: Raw Questions → Better Bank
Audit a raw question bank for bias, redundancy, missing coverage, and low-value prompts.
AI Pill #022: Objective → Workshop Plan
Turn a vague workshop objective into a timed plan with activities, outputs, and decision points.
AI Pill #021: Project Noise → Status Report
Turn project updates from multiple systems into a decision-focused status report.
AI Pill #020: Evidence → Deck Story
Turn a set of evidence points into a logical deck narrative with a clear claim-evidence implication chain.
AI Pill #019: Messy Input → Creative Brief
Turn conflicting comments and scattered requirements into a clear creative brief with unresolved tensions exposed.
AI Pill #018: RFP → Proposal Skeleton
Turn an RFP into a compliance matrix, win themes, and a proposal skeleton before drafting prose.
AI Pill #017: Competitor Noise → Weekly Watch
Build a focused weekly competitor watch that reports meaningful change instead of link volume.
AI Pill #016: Source Pack → Speaker Brief
Turn approved materials into a concise speaker brief, likely questions, and rehearsal plan.
AI Pill #015: Rough Email → Client-Ready
Turn a rough client email into a clear message with the ask, decision, owner, and deadline visible.
AI Pill #014: Search Results → Reading Queue
Turn a large literature search into a transparent, prioritized reading queue.
AI Pill #013: Transcript → Insight Matrix
Convert an advisory board or research transcript into a traceable insight matrix without flattening disagreement.
AI Pill #012: Objectives → Discussion Guide
Turn advisory board objectives into a timed, neutral, insight-generating discussion guide.
AI Pill #011: KOL Profile → Smart Brief
Build a useful KOL briefing note from publications, research themes, and recent scientific activity.
AI Pill #010: Congress Noise → Signal
Turn a flood of congress abstracts, presentations, and commentary into a prioritized intelligence brief.
AI Pill #009: Source Pack → Slide Outline
Turn an approved source pack into a purpose-built slide outline before anyone starts formatting slides.
AI Pill #008: Turn a draft claim into a traceable evidence trail
Use Elicit, Scite, and NotebookLM to turn a draft medical claim into a traceable evidence table before MLR review.
AI Pill #007: Turn scattered inputs into a usable project brief
Turn scattered client comments, meeting notes, and rough ideas into a clean project brief your team can act on.
AI Pill #006: Pressure-test discussion questions before the meeting
Pressure-test rough advisory board, KOL interview, workshop, or client strategy questions before the meeting.
AI Pill #005: Turn research into a sharper strategic POV
Turn research material into a sharper strategic POV with implications, risks, and recommended next steps.
AI Pill #004: Turn meeting transcripts into action trackers
Convert meeting transcripts into a clean action tracker with decisions, owners, deadlines, blockers, and next steps.
AI Pill #003: Beat the blank page with a stronger first draft
Use AI to move from a blank page to a useful first draft for decks, emails, briefs, and strategy documents.
AI Pill #002: Extract what matters from dense source material
Extract useful takeaways, implications, risks, and next steps from dense source material.
AI Pill #001: Meeting notes to client-ready follow-up
Turn messy meeting notes into a polished client-ready follow-up with decisions, risks, owners, and next steps.
