My predictions for the most important trends in 03:
- good science is back en vogue again. There will be more early stage deals between big pharm and small biotechs

- the cost pressure in health care and the newest " landmark trial" results of biuretics versus ACE inhibitors or calcium channel blockers will have wide implications for the drug industry. Showing efficacy against placebo will not be good enough in the future, a new drug will have to prove itself against existing drugs and have to be cost efficient too. HMO and fublic institutions will run more of there own clinical trials in the future. Objective numbers will be clever marketing in the future.

- the FDA is back in business again and the regulatory climate is more favorable for biotechs and innovative drug companies.
