Summary


Introduction

A paradigm shift is emerging in the pharmaceutical industry that will change drug discovery and development. The shift towards translational medicine will largely depend on the ability of technology vendors to offer solutions to both the cultural and technology issues surrounding translational research.

Scope

  • Geographic coverage includes the US, Canada and Western Europe
  • Builds on ongoing primary research with pharmaceutical companies, technology vendors, physicians, consumers and healthcare organizations

Highlights

Translational medicine is real and fueled by healthcare trends, such as consumerism and personalized care

Existing business models are called into question, driving translational medicine

Both cultural and technology barriers slow the progress of translational medicine
