The BioWorld Biotechnology State of the Industry Report 2000, which was just published, is the most comprehensive review and analysis of the business, science and government regulation of the biotechnology industry.

The 324-page report tracks the remarkable surge in the industry in 1999 and looks ahead to trends likely to shape the sector this year.

The year of 1999 was perhaps the most interesting to date in the biotech industry, as a jump in stock prices and financings late in the year peaked investor interest and gave companies a better position from which to develop products and negotiate deals. The report chronicles the turnaround, as well as the numerous scientific advances, regulatory issues and Wall Street performances that shaped the year.
