It’s clear to see that data is hugely important to the pharmaceutical companies, but conflicts have arisen as to whether big data or smart data is more beneficial in pushing the industry forward. To reach the full potential of data analytics it needs to shift to being used in more creative ways. As well as this, where pharmaceutical companies get their data from is changing, as they delve into external sources, including third party providers, as well as public and social media feeds. Pharmaceutical companies that adopt the use of telepharmacy devices gets more useful results.

It is called Research and Development (R&Dat pharmaceutical companies  so the bigger (R&D ) department the bigger the company.

The pharmaceutical and life sciences industry has been flooded with data. Generated by the proliferation of personal medical devices, social media, and electronic medical records  — but only if companies can translate it into actionable business intelligence. 

 

Highly data-driven healthcare companies are making better business decisions.

 

This information can help pharmaceutical and life sciences companies give payers the real-world evidence they demand to prove the efficacy and value of new drugs and devices.

 

The challenge lies not in collecting this data, but in harnessing, parsing, and analyzing it to create competitive advantage. Insights and intelligence derived from fast-moving data sets can help inform strategy decisions, spur innovation, inspire new products, enhance customer relationships, and bolster operations.

 

AND this can only be done by Data Scientists................................ YES they certainly are very useful for pharma & biotech industry.
