Big Pharma seeks to insulate itself from impact of patent cliff
The pharmaceutical industry is facing an impending patent cliff, when some of its biggest selling drugs will lose patent protection and become exposed to generic competition. While companies are seemingly investing as much into diversification as they are into R&D, a new Datamonitor report suggests that moving away from the core business of prescription drugs may not be the best strategy.

8th annual SFE Europe 2010
Barcelona, April 27-29th 2010
Historically in pharma, change is something we react to. It's not something we want, or choose. We try to figure out how to blow the competition out of the water, in ‘5 easy steps', but if it means inherently changing then forget it. Maybe now is the time to stop thinking this way. Maybe now is the time that we can change, try it out, find our feet, and innovate. Change, in case you hadn't noticed, is what SFE Europe is all about for 2010.

Challenges in standardization in Traditional Medicine / Herbal Drugs
The use of herbs and herbal extracts to treat diseases has stood the test of time. Herbal products/traditional medicine are composed of many constituents and are, therefore, capable of variation. The variability of the plant material is due to different conditions of growth, harvesting, drying, and storage. The polarity of the solvent, the mode of extraction, and the instability of constituents may also influence the composition and quality of the extracts.
