Why Reviewers Keep Querying Your CSR Safety Narratives

Description Most people who write CSR safety narratives were never actually taught how. You inherit a template, copy what the last person did, and it passes, until a reviewer reads one properly and asks the question the narrative was supposed to have already answered. In this video, I put three safety narratives on screen, mark-up exactly what is wrong with each one, and then rewrite them. Every example is fictional. No real study, participant, or product is represented. The idea underneath all three is simple: a safety narrative doesn't just report what happened. It should make the causality assessment make sense. I'm Lovelyn Charles. I write regulatory documents for vaccine and infectious disease programmes. Before that, I was the clinical science lead running the studies those documents describe.
