File Description [top]

Pharmacontacts is a company directory. Entries cover pharmaceutical and service companies, research institutes, regulatory authorities and industry associations. Each document contains company contact information, such as legal company name, full address, country and telephone number, as well as contact names, job titles, and up to 20 different job functions. Companies are classified according to 30 company categories.

This online version provides more up-to-date information than the corresponding print directories. Entries are verified by mail, telephone, and fax on an ongoing basis.

Pharmacontacts is compiled from four directories from PJB Reference Services:

The International Directory of Pharmaceutical Companies & Personnel
The International Directory of Biotechnology Companies & Personnel
The International Directory of Medical Devices & Diagnostics Companies & Personnel
The International Directory of Lifescience Services Companies & Personnel
