Walter,
I can answer this one. Ok, first "big data" players usually means HP, Oracle, SAP, IBM. These firms are extraordinarily good at handling structured data (ie numbers) in relational databases, but they don't deal well with unstructured data,…
Oh, they are doing CI, lots of it, but they call it other things, like Data mining e.g. They solve many of the same problems but from an engineering perspective

I've been turning this one over and can't find a satisfactory explanation.
Why don't we see more 'big data' players doing CI consulting. It seems to me that companies like Google, with absurdly comprehensive environmental data, doing more to move…
Hey Eric,

I am extremely interested in this field in fact I was on the US a month ago and could not find the right people. Now I have moved to mumbai India my home and looking for positions and will take it from there.
Secondly I do not have a PhD a masters from the US and 6 years of work experience in drug discovery and development, regulatory.
I will call you and we could speak. What day and time should I make this call I am 12 hours ahead of you if your on the east coast.
Recent terminations (not for cause!) at a CT-based pharmaceutical company have freed up some truly excellent people. Most are from R&D with deep experience concerning both technology and therapeutic area. Several have had contact with the marketing side either directly or as team collarborators. they are all VERY fast learners, delightful as colleagues and interested in new challenges. Would be happy to provide more details if you are aware of opeings.
I know that a bit of time has passed since your March entry- but this occurrence is quite recent.
