Description
Everyone expects something from the drug industry. Physicians and patients, investors, regulators and administrators all have an active
interest. Everyone wants to know what makes drugs ‘work’ medically and economically. Why are drugs so expensive? Is it the drug companies
or investors who demand high profits? What governs the pharmacoeconomics? Why are so few diseases treatable?
This book opens the
windows and doors of the industry telling the story of drug development by using real stories from inside the process.
Audience:
Academics/Scientists interested in working with biotech and pharma companies
