of links out into the Net." In addition to the free news, articles and
job ads there are some very useful directories. The Pharmafile Service
Companies Directory is a guide to suppliers and service providers in the
pharmaceutical and healthcare industry, searchable by company name, service
type (for example R& D, Sales and marketing) and service subtype.
You can also browse a list of current advertising campaigns and publishers
titles. There are separate directories for freelancers and professional
organisations. The Evaluated Links section is organised by category such
as drug information, B2B exchanges, regulatory organisations and even
