  I recently read an article from McKinsey & Company about the digital revolution that needs to occur in order for the life sciences industry to be successful in today’s age.

  It seems like every other day we’re reading about pharmaceutical companies developing mobile apps, or at the very least, investing in companies that develop them. And that’s for good reason: They work. They help researchers learn about disorders. They help educate patients on their conditions and provide treatment recommendations.

I didn’t like the fact that I couldn’t remember whether I took a pill in the morning, which would sometimes lead me to take an additional pill that may have not been necessary. That’s why […]

  You can’t argue with it because it’s a good idea. Yellow Cards have gone digital. Not the ones used in soccer/football, but the ones used in the UK for reporting adverse events.

  Theranos. You might have heard of them because the founder and CEO is the world’s youngest self-made female billionaire. Or you might have heard of them because of what they’ve created.
