Meet Frances Martin, Vice President of Global Commercial Strategy for 
Infectious Diseases at GlaxoSmithKline.  Fran has over 25 years of 
business expertise in pharmacy management, pharmaceutical marketing & 
sales, business development, managed care and strategic planning both 
within the U.S. & in international arenas.  Fran has been on commercial 
teams across multiple therapeutic categories: CNS, Respiratory, HIV, 
Urology, Diabetes, Obesity, SERMS, etc and across all phases of 
pharmaceutical development (preclinical, phase 1-4) and product life 
cycle (discovery through patent expiry).  She led marketing teams for 
the US product launches of Imitrex, Flovent, Agenerase and VESIcare - 
just a few of GSK’s most successful products.  She holds a Bachelor of 
Science in Pharmacy and maintains her accreditation as a Registered 
Pharmacist, licensed in Pennsylvania.

Fran’s presentation, "Commercialization of a Pharmaceutical Product," 
will offer insight on shaping a compound into a viable, marketed product 
and how early commercial input helps to identify patient and physician 
insight that shapes clinical data needs that may ultimately affect the 
utility of the compound in clinical practice.  She’ll also touch on the 
commercial building blocks that include getting relevant results from 
market research, building a market and preparing your product for 
launch.  Come ready to share any questions you may have regarding 
commercialization of pharmaceutical products!

Interested in a Leadership Role in the Pharmaceutical LIG?
=============================================================

Opportunities exist for enthusiastic and dedicated volunteers to take on 
the leadership of this very active LIG for the 2007 program.  The 
current leaders of the group plan to stand down at the end of their term 
and are looking for individuals who would enjoy the challenge of 
building and managing the 2007 program.

The three roles and their current incumbents are Chair: Derek Ross, VP 
Programs: Craig Herman, and VP Communications: Jan Gillespie. New 
officers would transition into these positions in November 2006.
