These services have been tailored to to meet the needs of medical directors, medical science liaisons, clinical operations, medical information, and scientific publications teams.

Dr Joseph Kohles, a former international medical leader for Roche, said: "The medical affairs organisations in pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies play a critical role in addressing the information needs of healthcare professionals and patients. They have also been faced with an ever increasing number of responsibilities over the past several years, often without sufficient resources to ensure their success."
