Over on the always-excellent Schwitzer Health News Blog,  the University of Minnesota’s Gary Schwitzer spotlights a notice that appeared in the Society of Professional Journalist’s (SPJ) e-newsletter:

“Interested in covering the health industry, science and medical research? Even more interested in using journalism to inform the public about the leading cause of illness and death worldwide?
