Hey guys,
I'm beginning to explore pharmacy and I'm much more interested in pharmacy careers in industry than the traditional retail pharmacy jobs. I'm wondering if anyone has information about the specifics (such as a detailed job description) of a typical pharmacist working in industry, say for a drug development company. I imagine that drug companies typically hire PhDs in biochemistry or moleclar biology to do drug development research, so I'm confused about what the role of a PharmD would be in a research setting. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Luke
