Biotechnology: market research reports

The biggest direct impact of biotechnology, and the biggest market for its products, is in medicine and healthcare. The biotechnology industry is, in many ways, becoming the research and development engine of the pharmaceutical industry. The tools and techniques of genetic analysis and manipulation are at the heart of the drug discovery process, and many of the largest biotech firms have been transformed over the past decade into pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical giants.

The biotechnology category covers the companies, technologies, tools, and applications of the advanced life science sector. Included are reports on research methods and equipment such as liquid chromatography, mass spectroscopy, genetic sequencing, gene expression, etc. There are also reports on the business of biotechnology, mergers & acquisitions, and funding. Insofar as the sector intersects with the pharmaceutical industry, there are also reports on product pipelines, strategies for drug development and manufacturing such as biogenerics, biosimilars and biomanufacturing. Reports cover so-called green- and white-biotech sectors as well.
