Re: Musings on pharma R&D productivity John LaMattina, former head of R&D at PFE, is back in the news with a piece in Nature (thanks to ‘Biotech Jim’ on SI for this find): http://www.nature.com/nrd/journal/v10/n8/full/nrd3514.html?WT.ec_id=NRD-201108 LaMattina’s musings do not ring true, IMO. I commented on this in #msg-64921805, and my views have not changed.
