| This
half-hour program is part of the "Shape of Things to
Come" series and examines how a drug is brought from
the idea stage to the market place. A panel of experts explore
the theory, economics and politics involved getting a product
approved. The discussion will also address the years of
research, the clinical trials, lobbying, pricing, competition,
and marketing that take place throughout the process. The
panel will then examine how these elements impact the delivery
and costs of these medications to the citizens of New Jersey.
