Appropriate data, the structure,
job descriptions and likely organizations will change.
We are living in an age that emphasizes a great increase in collection and use of data.
It is not surprising that the pharmaceutical industry,
which has been an information industry for decades,
is even more affected by these trends. The fact that some of these changes have happened so quickly and that many in pharmaceutical and medical research did not recognize the previous emphasis on information
may have disguised the cataclysmic events taking place.
Hence, data mining will play a major and pivotal role in pharmaceutical and health care industry in future.
