Drug Development 2009: Strategies – Technologies – Therapies
Successful drug development is the basis for innovative products and therapies brought rapidly to the market and the patient. Experts from pharma and biotech industry as well as academia will present at the Cooperation Forum 'Drug Development' on 3 December 2009 in Würzburg strategies for research co-operation and novel technology platforms for drug development with focus on oncology and infectious diseases. Major topics are e.g. personalised medicine, pharmacogenomics, molecular diagnostics, oligonucleotid-based therapeutics, chemical proteomics, drug safety and translational research.
Top research versus market obstacles for innovative products
Chances of novel drugs in respect to tightening reimbursement schemes of health care providers are the focus of the panel discussion on 2 December 2009 in Würzburg.
Review: Cooperation Forum 'Functional Plant-derived Ingredients'
Bayern Innovativ conceptualised and organised within the Network Life Science for the first time the cooperation forum 'Functional Plant-derived Ingredients – Food, Pharma, Cosmetics'. One focus was on hop ingredients. Therefore, the forum took place on 1 October 2009 at the German Hop Museum in Wolnzach. This town is in the middle of the Hallertau - a region generating more than one third of the worldwide hop production. With 210 participants from Germany, Austria and Switzerland, this first forum was a resounding success. It was a meeting point for experts from companies and institutes along the value chain - plant breeding, plant production, processing and hightech analysis regarding the functionality and application of value-added products in food, pharma and cosmetics.
