I work as an account manager in the Life Sciences vertical of an ITES organisation. I have been in the system for quite some time and had gained understanding of some of the key Pharmaceutical business fucntion.By Pankaj Shukla
This book particularly helped me to understand the full landscape and gain overall perpective. I would recommend this to anyone who has some or no business function knowledge and is wanting to consolidate. I would also recommend you to note down the points that are of interest to you and weave them in your own Pharma story.
I have now picked up Manual of Drug Safety And Pharmacovigilance. I am hoping this book would be as interesting as the earlier one.
I have a chem/biochem background and am about to finish my PhD. This book was great help for preparing for interviews in the pharmaceutical industry. Especially if you do not know anything about drug development, clinical trials and GxP regulations it is worth the money!By M. Zimmermann
