Medical writer needed — narrative review (PubMed-indexed target journal)

I'm a practicing pediatrician looking for an experienced medical writer / research assistant to help me produce a narrative review for publication in a PubMed-indexed peer-reviewed journal. Clinical work keeps me from having the time to draft this myself, so I need someone who can carry the writing while I can review drafts, and approve the final version. Scope of work: - Help me scope and finalize a focused review topic in pediatrics (you'll propose 2–3 options based on gaps in the recent literature; I'll choose) - Comprehensive literature search across PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar - Draft a full narrative review manuscript (~3,000–5,000 words) following standard structure: abstract, introduction, methods of literature search, main body with thematic sections, discussion, conclusion - Reference management in Vancouver or AMA style (whichever the target journal requires), using Zotero/EndNote/Mendeley - Format the final manuscript to the target journal's submission guidelines - One round of revisions after my review Requirements: - Strong background in medical writing, ideally with a health sciences degree (MD, MBBS, PharmD, MSc Public Health, or similar) - Demonstrated track record of published narrative or scoping reviews — please share 2–3 samples or PubMed links with your application - Familiarity with PubMed-indexed journals that accept narrative reviews in pediatrics (Cureus, BMC Pediatrics, Frontiers in Pediatrics, etc.) - Reliable communication and ability to meet milestones Authorship: This will follow ICMJE authorship criteria. You will be acknowledged in the manuscript's acknowledgments section for your writing assistance. If your contribution meets ICMJE criteria (substantial intellectual contribution beyond writing), co-authorship can be discussed. To apply, please include: 1. 2–3 samples of narrative reviews you've written (PubMed links preferred) 2. A brief note on your approach to scoping a review topic 3. Any pediatrics-specific writing experience 4. Your proposed timeline Applications without writing samples will not be considered. Looking forward to working with the right person.
