Our Deals & Alliances database, which includes many of the Life Science transactions over the last twenty years,
is updated on a daily basis. We rely on annual reports, regulatory filings, press releases, articles, websites and company contacts
to source this information. Deal economics are subject to timing and we combine the most up-to-date information with the ability
to gain a historical perspective by searching the database. We have summarized key categories of deal types
for your convenience and will continue to update them as our database expands.
