Editor's Notes

  1. Late 1960: Regulations tighten post thalidomide Early 1990s: First wave of Biologics research beginsLate 1990s: PDUFA regulations clears a backlog at the FDA
  2. Alexander Fleming 1928StaphylococcusConnect to large corporations vs startups.Founders solving their own problems with their own two hands.
  3. Slowed Research:No (17%) Yes (83%)Prevented Research: No (27%) Yes (73%0
  4. “I think we should consciously look with great dedication for those things that made Moore‘s law work. God didn’t give us Moore‘s law. Even Gordon Moore didn’t give us Moore‘s law. Your predecessors in the labs worked hard for it.” – Andy Grove
  5. Alexander Fleming 1928StaphylococcusConnect to large corporations vs startups. Founders solving their own problems head on.
