December 2020
Welcome to the December issue and The Medicine Maker 2020 Innovation Awards! We showcase the top technologies for pharma manufacturing and development launched during 2020. We also look back on the course of the COVID-19 pandemic and industry efforts to identify treatments and vaccines. Upfront covers biopharma cold chain, the microbiome, pharma ad spend, and more, while In My View focuses on 3D printing and the evolution of quality control. We also have articles on the science of E&L, sleeping sickness, and gene therapy – and we sit down with Sanofi Pasteur’s Elaine O’Hara.
