- Clarity: We use plain language, define technical terms, and provide context to support informed conversations with professionals.
- Accessibility: We structure content for quick scanning with summaries, key considerations, and practical takeaways.
- Independence: Our content is created without undue influence from advertisers or sponsors.
- Local insight, global relevance: We highlight Michigan contributions while reflecting the wider scientific landscape.
How We Work
Research and Sourcing
Our writers and editors review clinical guidelines, regulatory labeling, safety communications, and peer-reviewed literature. We synthesize findings into concise, user-friendly explainers, noting where uncertainties remain.
Review and Updates
Content is periodically reviewed for accuracy and updated as new safety signals, FDA actions, or key study results emerge. Pages include revision dates to signal currency.
Plain-Language and Equity Lens
We strive for inclusive, bias-aware language and consider how conditions and treatments may affect different communities in Michigan and beyond.
Supporting Michigan's Innovators
For inventors and entrepreneurs, we provide context on therapeutic areas, unmet needs, regulatory pathways, and the evolving standard of care. Our goal is to bridge scientific rigor with practical insights that help translate ideas into real-world impact.
