For over thirty years, Tufts CSDD has been dedicated to providing strategic information to help drug developers, regulators, and policy makers improve the quality and efficiency of pharmaceutical development, research, and utilization. Our path breaking research has provided critical independent analyses and insight on the pace and nature of new drug development.

What your efforts support:
Databases
Tufts CSDD maintains several unique and proprietary research databases that provide the most detailed source of historical information available on pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical innovation in the United States and abroad. These databases contain data on products approved from 1963 to present.
Through regular surveys of research based pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, Tufts CSDD obtains data on drugs and biologics that have entered human testing worldwide, as well as those that have received approval for marketing in the U.S. Drug companies providing data to the Tufts Center are assured that their information will be aggregated with data from other firms, and individual company data are never disclosed.
Library Services
Tufts CSDD’s Louis Lasagna Library of Drug Development Science and Policy offers a unique collection of published material and resources focusing on the economic, legal, political, and scientific aspects of pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical innovation. The collection contains more than 24,000 items, including books, journal articles, government publications, as well as articles from trade and popular press. A full-time research librarian is available to provide authoritative, focused, and knowledgeable responses to your information requests.
