Ther’s a couple of good pieces in the FT (link will take you to the front page) about the Pfizer announcement yesterday.

Actually, it’s quite interesting reading the comments of Pfizer’s CEO as reported this morning.  They give some insight into the self-critical eye that pharma is taking on how it has done things in the past and how it needs to change.  Basic message:  ‘All the big (drug) bets are off.’

And it’s not all bad news on the Pfizer front as this news release from Cancer Research UK shows – their announcement about an initiative on stratified medicine which is receiving investment from Pfizer and Astra Zeneca.
