Occupational health issues in the pharmaceutical research and development process.
The research and development process for bringing a new drug to market can span 8-12 years and many testing stages, during which the number of people with the potential for occupational exposure to dangerous compounds and their targets (infectious organisms) increases. Drs. Klees and Joines carefully guide the reader through the R & D process, indicating potential hazards along the way.
