Chapter 330 The major pharmaceutical giants rushed to Zijingang
On the day the special issue of "Cell" was published, international pharmaceutical giants and animal experiment companies suffered a major earthquake.
In the United States, the headquarters of Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Group.
As the world's largest pharmaceutical giant second only to Pfizer, it was founded in 1886 and today has created a diversified range of medical and health care products and consumer care products.
Johnson & Johnson ranks 20th in the world in terms of market value indicators and is among the top ten most enviable companies in the United States, with a global turnover of approximately US$30 billion.
It has established more than 250 branches in 60 countries around the world, has approximately 115,000 employees, and sells its products in 175 countries and regions.
It owns many well-known brands such as Johnson & Johnson, Neutrogena, Keri Keli, Jiaoshuang, Bondi, Daxon, Tylenol, etc. It is quite famous!
James, the chairman of Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceuticals, directly held a video conference with the senior management and asked the person in charge of the China region to call him individually. The birth of the ICR mouse inbred strain means that it is the leader in the entire pharmaceutical chain.
The most critical animal experiment led to another revolutionary progress.
The fields it covers are too wide, and it has become the international gold standard. Johnson & Johnson, as the world's leader in pharmaceutical companies, of course needs to be updated quickly, so for the patent license of Tanglou's ICR mouse, they must
Get ahead of Pfizer.
At the same time in the European region, Novartis in Switzerland also held a high-level meeting. As a multinational enterprise in the global pharmaceutical and health industry, Novartis is also one of the world's three largest pharmaceutical companies. It is headquartered in Basel, Switzerland, and has operations in more than 150 countries around the world.
countries and regions, with 138,000 employees.
Novartis has a diversified business portfolio covering innovative patented drugs, eye care, generic drugs, consumer health and vaccines and diagnostics, and is a world leader in all fields.
The person in charge of Novartis in China also received instructions from the headquarters, telling him to make a trip to Zijingang University. He must rush to obtain the European license before the European region, Germany's Cefino and the British GlaxoSmithKline.
Patent license for an inbred strain of ICR mice.
In addition to these international giants, many pharmaceutical companies in China who got the news immediately also took action. Suddenly, Zijingang University School of Medicine became the center of the world's attention.
As the editor-in-chief of "Cell" magazine, Alex also called Tanglou immediately. Tanglou was also a little unexpected when he received Alex's call.
I almost clicked the call thinking it was a scam.
"Dear Dr. Tang, first of all I would like to congratulate you on your outstanding contributions in the field of animal experiments. Your paper has been published in our special issue. The most important thing I want to call you this time is to obtain your consent to transfer ICR
Inbred mouse strains, as the new international gold standard, I have contacted the international ISO. As long as we get your permission, we will take care of the specific matters in the future."
ISO is the English abbreviation of the International Organization for Standardization. Its full name is Iianization for Standardization.
ISO is derived from the Greek word "ISOS", which means "EQUAL" - meaning equality.
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is a worldwide federation composed of national standardization groups (ISO member groups). The work of formulating international standards is usually completed by ISO's technical committees.
The ICR mouse inbred strain created by himself was able to obtain ISO certification. Tanglou was really unexpected, and his mind went blank for a while.
"Tanglou, Huaguo is a formal member of ISO. The organization representing China is the Standardization Administration Committee (SAC) of Huaguo. I have already had a phone call with the chairman of ISO. In order to encourage your new standard, I will recommend you.
Of course, when you join SAC, you are more of an honorary member, knowing that you are busy with scientific research and surgery, and you do not need to participate in specific SAC work."
Alex heard the silence on the phone and thought that Tanglou was unhappy because of his own arbitrary opinions. After all, many scientists have weird tempers, do not like to participate in various organizations, and hate worldly fame and money.
Therefore, Alex immediately explained that Tanglou was only an honorary member and had no obligations.
"Okay, okay."
Tanglou finally came to his senses. After all, he had gained international recognition for the first time. In the past, in his eyes, only the top figures in the scientific community were eligible to enter and participate in such international organizations.
[Ding, new achievement, publish an article in a special issue of the top publication "cell", reward: 10 gold coins.]
[Ding, new achievement, becoming an honorary member of the Standardization Administration of China (SAC), reward: 10 gold coins]
After hearing Tanglou's permission, Alex was of course very happy: "Dr. Tang, thank you very much for your trust and permission. If you have any new research papers in the future, you can send them to me directly."
Alex has become famous internationally this time thanks to Tang Lou. After all, he has withstood the pressure and verified Tang Lou's paper against all opinions. In Chinese terms, Tang Lou's
The military medal also has half of his Alex character on it.
Therefore, he has treated Tanglou the same as those top scientific awards. From now on, if Tanglou has any discoveries or research results, he can contact him directly.
Hearing what Alex said, Tanglou's heart skipped a beat. He hadn't just synthesized a sample reagent for felodipine, and was worried about the subsequent clinical research and application to the US FDA.
Tanglou thought for a while and said directly: "Alex, speaking of which, I actually have a paper in hand now, which is about the research on the new drug felodipine for hypertension. Now I have completed the laboratory compound synthesis sample reagents.
, are preparing to launch clinical trials.”
Hearing what Tang Lou said, Alex on the other end of the phone almost lost his grip and said excitedly: "Tang! Really, you are talking about the development of new high blood pressure drugs?"
Alex originally came from Johnson & Johnson and is very familiar with the pharmaceutical field, especially in cardiovascular diseases. Speaking of which, he was also responsible for a high blood pressure drug project before, but it was a pity that he failed when it reached the animal experiment stage.
Declare failure.
"Tang Lou, if you look like this, I will book a flight to China immediately. I think we need to talk in person. Tang, you are really a genius!"
Alex was very excited. Tanglou really gave him a big surprise. If, under the background of this inbred strain of ICR mice, Tanglou develops a new drug for hypertension and proves to be effective,
Then the influence of Tanglou will be very terrifying and astonishing.
Especially when Tanglou is still so young.
"Tang, let's meet at Zijingang University in China."
Alex suppressed his inner excitement, and immediately called his assistant over after hanging up the phone.
"Alex, you said you wanted to fly to Hangzhou, China tonight?"
Alex nodded, then thought about it and dialed another phone number. He was officially the chairman of Johnson & Johnson. After receiving Alex's call, James, the chairman of Johnson & Johnson, took it for granted that it was an inbred ICR mouse.
related matters.
"Hey, dear Alex, congratulations on once again making "cell" a sensation in the world. This time the ICR mouse inbred strain is really amazing. You are reminding me to take action in front of Pfizer, don't worry about me
We have already arranged for the person in charge of Huaguo District to visit Zijingang University."
"James, ask your assistant to book a ticket for you to Zijingang University immediately. This time you need to come with me in person."
Chapter completed!
