Drug-Eluting Stents Update; plus Biotech Progress and Milestones

The April 2006 issue of MedMarkets updates the market for drug-eluting stents. We also review the status of the biotech industry, considering a report from Ernst & Young (Beyond Borders: The Global Biotechnology Report) and other data on this ever-optimistic industry. (BTW, I found it particularly curious that the E&Y report referred to this year as the 30th anniversary of the biotech industry -- having once worked for one of the first biotechnology companies, Collaborative Research, which was founded in 1961, later named Genome Therapeutics and now known as Oscient Pharmaceutials, I guess biotech just measures time differently.)

Coverage in the April MedMarkets is outlined (and will be updated) on our archives page.

Lastly, thank you for those comments received on our all-too-brief, but apparently well received, "High Growth Medical Technologies" white paper. We are considering updating and expanding it in the near future.
