Terry Anderson’s Summary

A writer and editor in hematology, HIV/AIDS, malaria, neurology, oncology, orphan diseases, tuberculosis, pharmacology, drug safety, and drug-drug interaction.

I write and edit for the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), the President’s Advisory Council on HIV and AIDS (PACHA), Auburn Theological Seminary, the World Bank, and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and in previous years, for at least 30 other government and nongovernment clients.

  I work with the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) providing technical assistance to countries to better manage their grants from the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. I travel overseas at least once a month. I write and edit documents of all sorts and work directly with international officials to find the most efficient ways of getting life-saving drugs to the people who need them. My work often involves ensuring that grants in excess of $30 million are being implemented properly.

  A writer and editor in the sciences and macroeconomics, my writing and editing skills encompass scientific papers, human interest articles, proposals, and conference proceedings in hematology; HIV/AIDS; malaria; neurology; oncology; orphan diseases; tuberculosis; and pharmacology, drug safety, and drug-drug interaction (particularly antiepileptics, NSAIDS, anticholinergics, anticoagulants, anticonvulsants, benzodiazepines, beta-blockers, chemotherapeutic agents, contraceptives, corticosteroids, and GABAa agonists).
  
  Four articles (“Leukapheresis,” “Multiple Myeloma,” “Myelodysplastic Syndromes,” and “Urethral Cancer”) carry my byline in the 2008 edition of the Salem Encyclopedia of Cancer and two articles (“Bretton Woods Agreement” and “U.S. Agency for International Development”) will appear in the 2009 Historical Encyclopedia of American Business and Finance.
