The 34th annual JP Morgan Healthcare Conference is being held in San Francisco, CA from January 11- 14, 2016. A list of events and catalysts that were announced or updated at the conference today is included in this report. Additionally, below are some key points from today’s company presentations. Drug pricing has received a lot of negative press, so at the opening luncheon, it was interesting to hear JPM Chairman and CEO, Jaime Dimon suggest that nothing would really change with a new administration. He did add, however, that a new administration could address tax policy that would affect acquisitions that effectively move companies overseas like the recent Pfizer-Allergan deal.
