Publications are for Science only right?

I'm just wondering where I can list the following accomplishments (below) in my application if they do not count as publications? For this kind of stuff to be relegated to a bullet point on a resume seems like a rip so i thought i'd see if anyone had any ideas.

I've been working in the pharma industry on the business side for a few years and I've produced reports on different therapeutic areas with respect to their market potential and the underlying science behind specific therapies (in additon to other market factors incl patient demographics, etc etc). These reports were then circulated throughout the company and to our investors on a global scale. So my question is - is there any way this qualifies as a publication? I figure this is a stretch but for those of us coming from a non-lab environment, where can we list these types of accomplishments?

thanks

I don't know. Did a journal or magazine or any other literary source actually publish the information? If not, then I'm not sure you can qualify it as a publication.

Hey thanks for the reply. I just looked it up on a university's site and i can't list it. It's all about being published in a certain source that is the key here (which you alluded to). If anything, our company was adamant about protecting proprietary info so no way anything gets published in a public source.

thanks though

Publication in academia = published in a peer-reviewed journal.

^THAT!^

If it wasn't published in a peer-reviewed journal, its not a pub. The content matter doesn't really matter (i.e., it could be bio, chem, physics, psych, econ, etc.). The key here is that it's been published in a peer-reviewed journal recognized within its academic field as such (in other words, nationally distributed journals count, schools' internally distributed "journals" don't).
