Achieving approval of a new pharmacologic agent or device on a worldwide basis is a significant challenge. The guidelines and requirements that steer our efforts at enhancing and extending life around the world are tedious and, fortunately, comprehensive. In spite of relatively few setbacks, perhaps in no other category than pharmaceutical development are the advantages of these guidelines more evident.

BioPharm International is about to embark on another new beginning. You'll remember the magazine (along with the primers, supplements and media kit) had a drastic new beginning in February of 2004 when we launched the major redesign. There were other new beginnings in the past two and one-half years, like five new columns (StreetTalk, Operations Excellence, BioPartnerships, Compliance Briefing and Final Word.) You'll even see a sixth column about legal issues in 2006.
