The announced partnership continues to underscore that big pharma is working to rethink its strategies for funding innovation and building their pipelines. This is a big initiative (across many indications). Thought I would mention though that Pfizer is doing work in PD...programs they picked up in the Wyeth merger and have continued/expanded. Their continued work and support of our field is evident in their commitment to PPMI. They made a $4M pledge to the project...a great contribution and a great signal. So, a PD partnership too.
