Research and Markets: The Impact of iPads on pharma: A Primer

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/b7775b/the_impact_of_ipad) has announced the addition of the "The Impact of iPads on pharma: A Primer" report to their offering.

Its impact on Pharma is still being measured, but for an industry notoriously reluctant to adopt new technology, there is no doubt the iPad and tablets in general have changed the game. Already, major players such as Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Abbott, Novartis, Eli Lilly and sanofi-aventis have embraced the digital age, with more to come.

Yet many companies are still hesitating or are in the process of choosing technology, creating content and finding ways not only to integrate tablets, but use their functionality in innovative ways.
