CSB 244
Drug Discovery and Development: A Case-based Approach
Provides an overview of the drug discovery and development process through use of case examples--successful and unsuccessful attempts to integrate the scientific, clinical, regulatory, and commercial requirements to bring a new drug to patients. Focus on the complex array of independent tasks that must be accomplished to bring a new drug to the clinic. Specific cases discussed in a seminar format.
Instructors: Mochly-Rosen, D. (PI)
CSB 245
Economics of Biotechnology
Focuses on translation of promising research discovery into marketed drugs and the integration of scientific method, clinical needs assessment, clinical and regulatory strategy, market analysis, economic considerations, and the influence of the healthcare economic ecosystem necessary for successful translation. Explores the economic perspectives of various stakeholders--patients, providers, payers.... More Description for CSB 245
