Rapid reports from the frontiers of investigational drug research IDrugs

IDrugs - the Investigational Drugs journal - is a monthly review journal that saves you time and money by bringing you reports from the most noteworthy and topical meetings happening around the world.

Particular emphasis is placed on the rapid publication of information disclosed at these scientific meetings, which we bring to you within weeks. In addition, IDrugs offers you a selection of expert evaluations of investigational drugs, feature articles highlighting important issues in drug research and analysis taken from the Investigational Drugs database (IDdb3).

Meetings
Important information on the discovery and development of drugs is often disclosed at scientific meetings, particularly in oral presentations, long before publication in the primary literature.

IDrugs provides unparalleled coverage of scientific meetings through its network of scientific reporters, who attend meetings in their fields of expertise, and are thus able to provide their expert opinion on the presentations and data disclosed.

Thomson Scientific commissions reports from over 300 scientific meetings each year, and the best of these are published in IDrugs, within weeks of the event.

Features
Expert viewpoints on hot topics from within the pharmaceutical, technology, regulatory and financial industries, and academia are provided.

Features offer a forum for discussion of important issues or controversy in the drug R&D community. The articles are presented in an informative and thought-provoking style, and are written with qualified but non-specialist researchers in mind.

Drug evaluations
Expert commentary on the scientific and commercial potential of selected drugs in clinical trials are provided in each issue of IDrugs. Thomson Scientific systematically collects published references to investigational drugs and commissions scientific experts to review the information, thus providing a guide to the literature. IDrugs publishes a selection of drug evaluations in each issue, based on the strength of the commercial or scientific interest in the drug concerned.

IDrugs is an invaluable publication for anyone with an interest in investigational drugs.
