Bristows has recently launched On the Pulse, a microsite offering legal analysis and practical tools that our life sciences readers may find useful.

The site is organised by sector, covering pharmaceuticals, biotech, medical devices, health care and animal health. There is a Brexit section, touching on many aspects from data protection to tax issues, and from scientific funding to the UPC. The Tools menu allows access to a number of standard documents in different areas, including competition/procurement.

There are already a number of competition focused posts from our regular contributors, with Aimee Brookes writing about excessive pricing, Matthew Hunt on product hopping and rebates, Noel Watson-Doig on the NHS approach to biosimilar procurement and onstandardisation agreements in pharma and Francion Brooks on CMA enforcement in the pharmaceutical sector. We hope our readers find it a useful resource and we will continue to link to any relevant articles from here.
