Abstract

With the flood of data across all aspects of the pharmaceutical industry, information visualization is emerging as a critical component of discovery, development, and business. But it's a new class of visualizations that is having the greatest impact. Higher-level summaries that can provide a framework for understanding the immense volumes of data and that reveal unexpected relationships have come to the forefront. And, the ability to use these visualizations to cross-domains and data types provides the ability to integrate analyses and support fast, effective decisions.
