COMPANY/PUBLICATION: STRATA

Formation Bio is an AI-native biopharma company redefining drug development with radical efficiency. We have built proprietary technology and AI systems that accelerate every stage of clinical development—from trial operations to strategic decision-making—enabling faster, smarter paths to proof of concept and beyond.

Our model focuses on acquiring or in-licensing promising drug assets from pharma and biotech companies, then applying our differentiated AI-driven approach to unlock their full potential. The result: a new paradigm for bringing transformative medicines to patients more quickly and at scale.

We are launching Strata, a digital publication focused on bringing broadly accessible insights on life sciences and pharma that is rooted in data. This initiative is motivated by two factors:

A gap in content that presents data and visualizations in a rigorous yet approachable way—neither an esoteric academic paper nor a bland, generic consulting whitepaper
A lack of high-quality, accessible content for non-industry individuals to learn about biopharma and how it works

Our audience ranges from professionals in the industry to the “industry-curious” public. Some pieces will lean more expert-focused, while others will aim to be readable and insightful for general audiences.

Although supported by Formation Bio, Strata will stand as its own independent brand. It will cover the field broadly rather than focusing on Formation Bio itself, with the aim of becoming a go-to resource for data-rich, thoughtful perspectives across the life sciences landscape.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We’re looking for contributing authors who are excited to tell the story of biopharma in a way that is both rigorous and accessible—writers who can bridge the worlds of science, data, and narrative to make complex topics clear, engaging, and trustworthy. Each writer will have access to data analytics and visualization resources from Formation Bio to help bring their topic to life.

IDEAL CONTRIBUTORS ARE:

Deeply familiar with the life sciences, pharma, and biotech ecosystem
Skilled at translating complex scientific, clinical, or business concepts into clear, engaging writing
Comfortable grounding arguments and insights in data (charts, visualizations, analysis)
Excited to explore the intersections of science, technology, regulation, and society in biopharma
Able to balance rigor with accessibility, writing for both informed industry readers and curious outsiders
Nice to haves: experience creating engaging data visualizations / using data visualization tools
Contributors will be credited as primary authors for articles, and Formation Bio will serve as final editors.

HOW TO APPLY

We’d love to hear your ideas. To apply, please email strata@formation.bio with 2–3 topic proposals you’d be excited to write about, along with a brief note on your background and links to relevant writing samples (published pieces, blog posts, or other work that shows your style). Our ideal content is visualization-heavy, data-backed, and written for a broad audience.

We can offer $0.50 per word, with the potential for an ongoing relationship if your work resonates with our vision and audience.
