Requirements for Biodiscovery, with an Emphasis on Norway and the Northern Seas

Guest lecture by Professor David Newman, National Cancer Institute, National Institute of Health, Frederick, Maryland,  USA.

This talk will involve discussion of biorepositories with hopefully realistic ideas as to the “value” of such operations, not just monetary but more importantly, knowledge that will aid in future Norwegian enterprises.

There will also be some ideas as to the personnel that may be necessary to undertake such tasks, together with an idea as to their training.

In addition, some ideas as to the timing involved and a realistic look at the numbers involved both of compounds/extracts and costs for development of drugs.

There will also be some suggestions as to groups with whom one can interact, not limited to Norway or the US but in Europe, Russia and the Far East.
