The modern system of drug discovery and development is broken. Development costs are so high that pharmaceutical companies can only afford to develop blockbuster drugs that will be worth at least $1 billion annually and take a decade to come to market. Researchers have incentives to hide their work rather than collaborate. And the most valuable data for drug discovery is hidden in silos or unpublished research.
