The creation and delivery of therapeutics draws on the talent, passion and expertise of a wide range of professionals. We want to bring this group into the spotlight. From Phase I clinical trials to market launch and beyond, we want to bring together the many threads that make up drug development and manufacturing. There is no more interesting, challenging or important area to be working in, and that will be reflected in every issue of the magazine. Our aim is to bring you useful, credible and entertaining articles, in print and online. Specifically, we have three guiding principles for developing our content.
The first is to tell stories. We go below the surface to delve into the hopes, fears, motivations and aspirations of the key figures. We believe that these personal stories provide a deeper appreciation of the field, and a fuller understanding of where it is headed. The second is to generate practical, pragmatic articles that are meaningful to your daily working life. We bring the world’s leading experts to you so that they can share experiences, opinions, insight and advice that you won’t find elsewhere. This will include articles that review best practice, and evaluate new technologies and initiatives that will shape the industry. Furthermore, we will extensively cover topics that will improve your on-the-job performance, including personal and career development, advice on managing projects and staff, and analyses of the interface between the many specialties that work together to develop new drugs and biologics.
The third is engagement. The content that we publish is a starting point, not an end point. We want your feedback, suggestions, and submissions on every aspect of the development and manufacture of new pharmaceuticals. Our goal is to create a publication that you look forward to receiving every month – a new type of publication, full of content that will be useful, entertaining and inspiring. You can engage with our content in whatever format you prefer – in print, PDF, iPad app or online at www.themedicinemaker.com.
We will judge our success on how well we meet your needs, so please let us know what you like, what you don’t, and what you want to see us cover. It’s your publication.
