New Paper on Authorized Generics by Prof. Jay Thomas

Prof. Jay Thomas recently wrote a new paper entitled "Authorized Generic Pharmaceuticals: Effects on Innovation".  The paper was publised by Congressional Research Service, of the Library of Congress.

Prof. Thomas's new paper provides a very nice, concise summary of the authorized generics issue.  After going through the basics of Hatch Waxman and how the practice of authorized generics was born, the paper discusses two recent working papers that offered differing views of the effects of authorized generics.  Finally, the paper addresses where the practice of authorized generics may be heading in the future.

Thanks to a helpful reader for sending me a copy of the new paper!
