Patience Adherence Is Our Weak Link - Using Technologies to Improve Results
6/14/2011 9:30:00 AM
Today it's about creating collaborative practices and engaging the patient in the treatment plan right from the start. How can we use technology to drive for better results? Research shows over time in chronic care situations adherence is only about 50%, so any improvement will make a lot of difference in both patient results and the business results of the pharmaceutical companies. In this session we showcase several projects underway including the use of RFID, wireless networks and mobile devices.

Clouds in Pharma - Not Hype Any More
6/15/2011 9:15:00 AM
We've all been through the over-hyped and under delivered technologies but this one is for real. Today's IT infrastructures can't expand fast enough to meet Life Sciences computational needs so we can turn to the Cloud. In pharma the issues become more complex - data security, patient confidentiality and the all around data integrity issues are key.
