Biotechnology/Biotech Business, Policy, Law, and Science

Learn the business of biotechnology, how to start and manage biotechnology companies, and how to better service the needs of biotechnology companies. 
 
Going beyond simple 'science for non-scientists' or 'mini MBA' offerings, this course describes the convergence of scientific, political, regulatory, and commercial factors that drive the biotechnology industry and define its scope.
 
Topics covered include:
The development of biotechnology
An accessible introduction to the science of biotechnology
Drug development
Laws, Regulations, and Policy
Intellectual Property
Patents
The Business of Biotechnology
Finance
Marketing
Management
         This course is based on the leading business-of-biotechnology text, "Building Biotechnology," which has been adopted by more than 50 schools, and is taught by Yali Friedman, Ph.D., publisher of the
Journal of Commercial Biotechnology
and a former instructor of biotechnology management at the National Institutes of Health.
I hope you enjoy this course as much as I did putting it together.
