NOT pharmaceutical department Explanation: Google found 187 hits, many of them at pharmaceutical companies, including Japanese subsidiaries of Pfizer, etc. From a quick glance, I gathered the focus was on obtaining official approval from the government. One interesting hit talked about how Yahoo.co.jp's 薬事部 regularly scanned their auction site, looking for questionable items. No specifics, but I assumed people selling Viagra and other drugs. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-02-14 02:15:14 (GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Regulatory Affairs Now that offices are open, I asked a contact in a Japanese subsidiary of an American pharmaceutical company. He volunteered to check out other companies. |
