    About the Sponsors and Producers

    R&D Directions provides insight into pharmaceutical research and development, from discovery through clinical trials and submission. Leaving the hard science to other publications, R&D Directions focuses on pharmaceutical companies' R&D business strategies and decisions. Editorial content covers drugs, therapeutic categories, industry segments, and strategies, and imparts extensive intelligence on products in the pipeline. Although R&D Directions contains a wealth of medical and scientific information, it is written in a non-clinical, non-technical style.


    IVD Technology

    IVD Technology (IVDT) is the only trade journal designed exclusively for manufacturers of in vitro diagnostic products. Written by leading experts in their fields, IVDT's peer-reviewed articles cover a wide range of technical and regulatory topics. The publication’s primary focus is on diagnostics technologies—including research, development, and manufacturing. IVDT articles contain authoritative information on all aspects of manufacturing immunoassays, nucleic-acid-based diagnostics, clinical chemistry tests, and related instrumentation.
