For neglected disease research. In 2008, the Karolinska Institutet (KI) in Stockholm, Sweden, discovered some key problems during an internal audit and decided that paper notebooks were a liability. Pharmaceuticals are an often mentioned example for possible transfer and adaptation. A lot of the notebooks contained electronic Some research groups at KI were already using ELNs, project manager Cecilia Bjorkdahl explains; usually this occurred after an academic had worked for a biotech or pharma company and come back into the university. Nobody can doubt that applied research especially done by the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries has saved innumerable lives in the last one hundred years. The extraordinary CEOs that recognize this bias will reap real benefits. As companies rely more heavily on partnerships with academic centers and contract research organizations to help with R&D, the industry has developed an increasing appetite for people with skills in managing outside I was heartened to hear that a Yale-trained medicinal chemist with a decade of experience can still find a job in pharmaceuticals even though it took a herculean effort. Real World Drug Discovery: A Chemist's Guide to Biotech and Pharmaceutical Research. Focused on basic questions involving receptors and cancer cells, but this work had an immense impact on drug discovery; for instance, heart disease-preventing statins which are the world's best-selling drugs derive directly from Goldstein and Brown's pioneering work on cholesterol metabolism. The World Health Organization's Consultative Expert Working Group for Research and Development Financing and Coordination has been requested to evaluate open source drug discovery. Commissioned by World Health Organization; 2005. Rydzewski RM: Real world drug discovery: A chemist's guide to biotech and pharmaceutical research.
