Change Management for Pharma |
| Nov 17-18, 2008 at Ritz Carlton Philadelphia, Philadelphia Pennsylvania United States |
| Worried aboutxe2x80xa6 -Weak pipelines and productivity? -Rising costs and pricing pressures? -Share prices and ROI? -Growing competition from all directions? -Regulatory and customer demands? -Attracting and retaining top talent? Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

Bio Banking 2009 |
| Jan 12-14, 2009 at TBA, Philadelphia Pennsylvania United States |
| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

Bio Banking 2009 |
| Jan 12-14, 2009 at TBA, Philadelphia Pennsylvania United States |
| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

Bio Banking 2009 |
| Jan 12-14, 2009 at TBA, Philadelphia Pennsylvania United States |
| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Bio Banking 2009 |
| Jan 12-14, 2009 at TBA, Philadelphia Pennsylvania United States |
| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions.

| Jan 12-14, 2009 at TBA, Philadelphia Pennsylvania United States |
| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

| Worried aboutxe2x80xa6 -Weak pipelines and productivity? -Rising costs and pricing pressures? -Share prices and ROI? -Growing competition from all directions? -Regulatory and customer demands? -Attracting and retaining top talent? Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

| Jan 12-14, 2009 at TBA, Philadelphia Pennsylvania United States |
| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

| Jan 12-14, 2009 at TBA, Philadelphia Pennsylvania United States |
| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

Bio Banking 2009 |
| Jan 12-14, 2009 at TBA, Philadelphia Pennsylvania United States |
| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Bio Banking 2009 |
| Jan 12-14, 2009 at TBA, Philadelphia Pennsylvania United States |
| Bio-specimen based research has been a critical method in helping the scientists and researchers to unlock the mysteries of cancer and other diseases by connecting the huge amount of emerging molecular data and the wealth of medical data that exists in patient histories and clinical outcomes. It enables researchers to explore and identify the molecular xe2x80x9csignaturesxe2x80x9d that are characteristic of certain disease sub-types, and provides a pathway to use those signatures as diagnostic tools and as targets for new drug discovery. They also provide the means for initial testing of new drugs. Well stored and managed biological samples and the data information attached to the samples are critical resources and biobanks provides the necessary access and resources for researchers and therefore is playing an important role in advancing bio-specimen based research. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry. Customers are demanding more effective drugs and a tougher regulatory environment meaning new product introduction processes and portfolio management are more critical than ever. With this, Big Pharma has been hemorrhaging human capital xe2x80x93 whether by strategic downsizing and restructuring, or by employees seeking more stable opportunities. The pharmaceutical industry is at a crossroads. All of this places great pressure on organizations to change. However the process of change is difficult, and implementing it successfully makes considerable demands on the senior executive managers involved. The economic climate, political trends, consumer demands, corporate policy, employment levels and financial resources are all constantly at play, and organizations clinging on to static structures will ultimately lose out. Change is a dynamic and jolting process. Change Management for Pharma addresses how to institute and manage change successfully and gain company-wide support for culture innovation.This two-day event provides a forum for exchanging ideas and best practices surrounding innovation, culture change and human capital management in series of Keynotes, case studies, panels and roundtable discussions. We must embrace change to move forward. |

Youxe2x80x99re not alone. With a xe2x80x9cperfect stormxe2x80x9d of expiring patents and generic competition, lackluster R&D pipelines and drug safety issues greatly impacting public perception, times have never been tougher for the pharmaceutical ndustry.
