Covering a neglected but important topic of management and information technology collaborations in drug discovery and development, this book discusses the state-of-the-art collaborative and computing techniques for the pharmaceutical industry. Tackling problems thoroughly, from both the human collaborative and the data and informatics side, this volume is relevant to the day-to-day activities of running a laboratory or a collaborative R&D project. Researchers will appreciate this how-to guide for new laboratories, new companies, and new partnerships, as well as a user manual for how to troubleshoot existing collaborations.
