William Harvey Seeks local allies for Pharma research

As part of its foray into India, William Harvey Research -- the UK-based contract research organisation (CRO) and part of the renowned William Harvey Research Institute - is in discussions with three leading Indian pharmaceutical companies for joint drug research and collaborations. "We are looking at drug research alliances in India and talking to three major Indian companies that are developing new drugs. However, it is too early to name the companies and the nature of discussions," said Christoph Theimermann, chief executive officer, WHRL.
