Publicly communicating research, scientific approaches and sharing ideas is an important part of any scientific endeavor, regardless of where this work is being performed. BEBPA is a non-profit organization (501(C)3) dedicated to providing a platform for open communication between scientists working in the (bio)pharmaceutical industry. We are interested in including the academic research community in these discussions.
