FEATURED EDITORIAL
When earlier this year the Trump administration began waving the specter of tariffs on drug substances and products entering the U.S., the biopharma world held its breath. European countries, as much as even China, felt the lack of oxygen. Would, for example, global sponsors leave European CDMOs to relocate their API production at contractors in the U.S.? Here's what we uncovered.
