Pharmaceutical Executive: August 2009

I've been approached by many physicians who are looking for non-clinical jobs within the pharmaceutical companies. If you're interested in becoming a pharmaceutical physician executive, then perhaps you may want to start by reading and staying up-to-date on some of the current events that's going on in the pharma world.

Let me introduce you to Pharmaceutical Executive, a journal published by Advanstar Communications, Inc. If you'd like to read the August issue, click on this link to view the journal in digital format. One thing that I really like about the digital format is that you can click directly on many parts of the journal to open hyperlinks. That just makes things very convenient.

Eventually, you may want to join the Academy of Pharmaceutical Physicians and Investigators (APPI) if you see yourself having a non-clinical career in the pharmaceutical industry.
