Synapse Medical Communications

Receptor seeking new ligands.

Launching in US biotech comes with a few problems the usual agency answers don’t fit. Here are four of them, and what we’d bring to each.

Or skip ahead to the offer
Receptor 01Unbound

A first-in-class mechanism.

Most HCPs haven’t seen anything that works quite like it, so the science has to be explained clearly and accurately, long before launch.

Ligand · Scientific depth

PhDs, MDs and PharmDs.

Claims, citations and slides go through rigorous scientific review before they go out the door.

What binds here

  • Publication planning
  • Symposia
  • Slide decks
  • Conference reports
  • Posters
Receptor 02Unbound

Questions only the right experts can answer.

You need expert advice on your program well before launch, and it isn’t always obvious who to ask.

Ligand · Thought-leader engagement

Real advice from the right experts.

Stakeholder mapping finds the experts whose input you actually need, picked for what they know, and our advisory boards capture what they tell you. AdBoard PLUS follows up on the questions the meeting left open, and Catalyst lets advisors weigh in online, on their own time.

What binds here

  • Stakeholder mapping
  • Advisory boards
  • AdBoard PLUS and Catalyst
Receptor 03Unbound

A lean team with a launch-sized list.

Small teams often end up with a medcom agency, a creative agency and a digital one, and spend launch season keeping all three in sync.

Ligand · One roof

Three sister teams under one roof.

We’re part of the adpharm family, so medcom, creative and digital work as sister teams under one roof.

What binds here

  • Medical communications
  • Creative
  • Digital
Receptor 04Unbound

An agency you haven’t tried yet.

Bringing in someone new is a risk, and you won’t really know how we work until you’ve worked with us.
