Biotech investors are more discerning than ever, but there still are billions of dollars in funds available. Two new publications, the 2005 U.S. and Canadian Biotechnology VC Directory and the 2005 European Biotechnology VC Directory, offer a competitive advantage in the venture chase by doing your homework for you.

With more than 2,250 contact names presented for the more than 750 firms broken out by alphabetical order, geographical location and focus area, the books deliver data that put you in touch with the decision makers, while eliminating guesswork.

"These directories represent the legwork, so whether your task is marketing, research or financial negotiation, our timely and user-friendly data will help you reach your funding goals," said Managing Editor Michael Harris.
