HEALTH <Picture> Good health and an abundant, safe food supply -- fundamental human needs being met by pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries. But intensified regulation and economic pressures worldwide have changed the business climate for these global industries. Battelle tailors technology to meet their special needs. We use technology to identify improved drugs and accelerate their development and regulatory approval. We deploy innovative technology in all critical phases of drug development -- discovery, preclinical studies, clinical trials, post-marketing surveys, and cost effectiveness/quality of life studies. We specialize in complex biochemistry techniques to determine the health risks of herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides. Our comprehensive registration research and development services yield agrochemical products that are highly specific, effective at low application rates, and safe for people and the environment. Prevention remains the most cost-effective means to reduce spiraling health costs. So Battelle applies advanced statistical, surveying, and monitoring techniques to help develop sound public health programs. CPHRE, Center's for Public Health Research and Evaluation (CPHRE), a specialized group within Battelle, has the objective to improve public health through research and evaluation.
