A Century of Drugs: Science, Medicine, and Industry in the Development of Pharmaceuticals

本项目探讨了生命科学家、医生和实业家在19世纪90年代至90年代之间在发现六种主要新药方面的合作。其目的是编写一部以原始资料为基础的历史，编写两本书以及其他交流研究结果的著作，探讨学术生命科学、医学和制药工业之间的相互影响，这些影响来自于这种合作。这段历史将为生物学知识和医学实践之间的关系以及制药工业参与临床研究和生物科学的社会和智力后果提供基本见解。

This project explores collaborations between life scientists, physicians, and industrialists in the discovery of six major new drugs, between the 1890s and 1990s. The aim is to develop a primary source-based history, and two books as well as other writings communicating findings, on the mutual influences between academic life science, medicine, and the drug industry that have flowed from such collaborations. This history will provide fundamental insights into the relationship between biological knowledge and medical practice, and the social and intellectual consequences of the pharmaceutical industry's involvement with both clinical research and biological science.
