authorization. This reorganization was necessary for the continued success of the company. Often the process for drug discovery and market is a slow and tedious process which can cost a company a lot in resources and financially. The smaller biotech companies are able to move quicker and push new drugs to market faster. The shift‚ Yamada thinks‚ will help produce an entrepreneurial environment akin to a smaller‚ biotechnology outfit. This reorganization placed nearly 2‚000 research scientists

foods that we eat through science‚ all because of corporate greed. What’s even more terrifying is that majority of consumers have no clue that genetically modified foods are everywhere including the shelves at their local grocery stores. These big biotech agricultural companies are genetically modifying our foods with dangerous pesticides‚ viruses and foreign DNA‚ not knowing or really caring about what effects this will have towards the consumers and our ecosystems in the future.

This case describes the reorganization of drug discovery at GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) following the formation of GSK from the merger of Glaxo Wellcome and SmithKline Beecham. This reorganization placed nearly 2‚000 research scientists into six centers of excellence in drug discovery (CEDD). Each CEDD focused on a small set of therapeutic areas and possessed decision rights over the progression of pharmaceutical compounds through the early stages of development. It addresses issues about the benefits

percent of processed foods contain genetically modified ingredients (Biotech). GM foods are created using biotechnology to change their genetic material. A variety of techniques are used to introduce the desired genes or ‘inactivate’ unwanted ones. Techniques include benign bacterial or viral infection (bacterial carriers)‚ gene splicing‚ gene ‘silencing’‚ biolistics‚ calcium phosphate precipitation and electroporation (Biotech). This means scientists are able to put genes from two separate species

In 1998 the first genetically modified (GM) food was approved for public consumption. Since then GM foods have become part of the world’s food supply and are produced in several countries. While horror stories in the 90s promised dire consequences for introducing GM foods to the populace most of those problems have failed to arise as promised. Some scientists say that GM foods are completely safe and the proof might be that we are all still here to debate the point. GM foods are not labeled in the
