Moderator:  Duane Schulthess, Managing Director, VitalTransformation. Featured Speakers:  Dr. Hans-Georg Eichler, Senior Medical Officer, European Medicines Agency, EU; Dr. Gigi Hirsch, Executive Director, MIT Center For Biomedical Innovation; Richard Bergström, Director General, European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA); and Steve Rosenberg, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Health Sciences Global Business Unit, Oracle Health Sciences.
