FRESH PERSPECTIVES 2013 Featuring Insights from Vendors


A Note from the Editor


American Pharmaceutical Review strives to act as an objective, reliable and non- promotional resource for our readers. For this reason, APR has maintained an unbiased editorial policy since inception. This policy prohibits the mention of specific vendor companies or product names, and publication of vendor-written editorial contributions is avoided. In 2012, however, we felt it was necessary to implement a Fresh Perspectives section to allow vendors an opportunity to voice their findings as well. Following last year’s successful initiation, this year’s November/December issue also features provider input on key research, unique strategies, and best practices in the pharmaceutical sciences industry.
