Anthony: I agree. What doesn't make sense to me is that MRK is a very research-oriented company and I can't think of a stronger R and D head than Ed Scolnick (he has manufacturing too). Other than Richard Sykes at Glaxo, this is as influential a position a first-rate researcher can get too. Do you or anyone else have any "feel" for the Merck research productivity (compared to PFE for example) other than based on corporate press releases and what's obviously in the clinical pipeline? The one major difference I have noticed is that MRK has fewer stategic alliances with biotechs than just about everybody else amongst the large pharma (this maybe a red herring though). Epicenter
