Top 200 Pharmaceuticals
.....................................................................................................................................................
A research group out of Cornell University has created really interesting poster of the top 200 pharmaceutical drug names by retail sales. The poster not only ranks each name, but also shows its chemical structure.
The research group is call Njardarson Group. It is made up of visiting scientists, post-doctoral fellows, graduate students, undergraduate students and two cute canine mascots. The team focuses on the development of compounds and hopes to educate us about how chemistry positively impacts our lives.
The Top 200 pharmaceutical poster can be downloaded for free as a high resolution PDF .
