Streamline your biopharma intelligence

Today, we’re excited to launch Feedly for Biopharma to help biopharma professionals cut through the noise. We’ve designed a collection of integrations and Leo models specifically designed to help you find the information you need, break barriers between teams, and streamline open-source intelligence.

280,000 biopharma professionals already use Feedly to keep up with the latest biopharma news and research insights about topics like diseases and conditions, genes, and competitors.

Biopharma is a competitive space. It is key for pharma and biotech companies to keep ahead of their competition and to be aware of the latest scientific and technological breakthroughs.Learning more about the diseases and methodologies that are being researched by other biopharma companies can help you better prepare your strategic plans and research programs. According to a new analysis published in JAMA in March 2020, the cost to develop a new drug for a US biopharma company is $1 billion.

With hundreds of articles, scientific publications, and regulatory updates to read and organize every day, biopharma intelligence research is overwhelming. Finding the information you need in that sea of information is time-consuming and tedious. We’re launching Feedly for Biopharma to help biopharma professionals cut through the noise and save time.

Go to the Power Search and select the Biopharma Mode

You’re in control

Ask Leo to search for “cell therapy” in any of the biopharma sources we curated for you. Create a search query and select “cell therapy” as the topic.

You can refine your query and combine topics with +AND and +OR.

You can create even more targeted queries by selecting the types of publications you want on the left-hand side: pick from 300 science journals, 800 biopharma trade publications, 80 regulatory sources, or 350 healthtech blogs.

For example, use +AND to focus on news related to cell therapies and biopharma companies, and select the Biopharma Business type of publications only.

Follow Twitter accounts in Feedly

Search for any Twitter handle in the ‘Twitter feeds’ tab, just like you would with any other source on Feedly.

When you search for an account, you’ll see two options: ‘Tweets’ and ‘Tweets with Links’.

Follow ‘Tweets’ to see all tweets from an account.

Follow ‘Tweets with Links’ to follow only tweets from this account that link out to articles, videos, pictures, or any other type of external content. This lets you skip any tweets without external content.

Choosing ‘Tweets with Links’ is great because:

If possible, we’ll extract the content of linked articles and make the content appear inline, just like any other article in your feeds.

You can create a Leo priority on both the tweet and the content of the article when it’s extracted. We’ll tell you more about Leo priorities in a second.

Search for an account, and then choose whether you want to follow all tweets, or only tweets that link to external content.

Scan tweets — and the articles they link to — in your feeds

Tweets are aggregated into your feeds with the rest of your content. When you click on a tweet that links to an article, the article will open in Feedly.

This is where it gets powerful. Leo, your AI research assistant, helps cut through the noise of tweets in your feeds and find what’s essential to you. Click ‘Train Leo’ to create a priority.

Ask Leo to prioritize topics, like “Tik Tok”, and then use AND, OR, and NOT to refine your priority.

Leo reads both the content of the tweet and any linked content to decide whether or not a tweet should be prioritized.

Train Leo to mute tweets that aren’t important to you

Just like any other piece of content in Feedly, you can train Leo to mute tweets about topics you don’t care about, so you only see essential news in your feeds.

Leo reads both the content of the tweet and any linked content to decide whether or not to mute a tweet.

FAQs about the Feedly Twitter integration

How do I get started with the Twitter integration? What can I follow?Anyone on a Pro+, Business, or Enterprise plan has access to the Twitter integration. Once you’ve connected your account to Twitter (go to the ‘Twitter feeds’ tab in Feedly to set it up) you can follow accounts, hashtags, searches, or Lists.

Can I follow protected Twitter accounts?Yes. If the Twitter account you want to follow is protected, just make sure the Twitter account you’re using to connect to Feedly follows the protected account.

How do I remove retweets?Right now, it’s not possible to explicitly remove retweets. If you want to remove retweets from your feeds, our recommendation is to hide retweets from inside your Twitter account. Here’s how

Do I need to follow both ‘Tweets’ and ‘Tweets with links’ for an account or hashtag?You only need to follow one. Choose ‘Tweets’ and you’ll get all tweets, with and without links.Choose ‘Tweets with Links’ to get only tweets that link to external content, like articles or videos.

Is it possible to filter a search further once I follow a hashtag?Yes. Our advice is to first use Twitter’s advanced search to refine your search. Then, once you’re satisfied with the results, copy and paste the URL of the search in Feedly to create a new source.

New Feature
Track your competitors efficiently

The biopharma space has become more and more competitive. It’s tedious to scan through hundreds of articles every day to track your competitors or find potential partnerships.

We are excited to announce that you can now prioritize biopharma companies with Leo, your AI research assistant.

TRY FEEDLY FOR BIOPHARMA

Let’s walk through an example of how you could use Leo to prioritize news about competitors. Imagine you do market and competitive intelligence at a pharma company and you want to track biopharma companies.

Cut through the noise

You can train Leo to read your biopharma feeds and prioritize articles related to biopharma companies.

Leo prioritizes biopharma companies

Leo continuously reads the thousands of articles published in your feeds. It’s an efficient way to cut through the noise and keep up with the latest news about partnerships, methodologies and clinical trials.

You’re in control

We’ve trained Leo to understand 230 biopharma companies that are categorized into four different types of organizations:

The topic “Biopharma companies” allows you to prioritize the top global biopharma companies in the world, including Roche, Pfizer, etc.The topic “Biotech companies” allows you to prioritize the top global biotech firms and startups, including Gilead, Arsenal Bio, etc.The topic “Drug manufacturers” allows you to prioritize the top global drug manufacturing firms and startups, including Johnson & Johnson, Novartis, etc.The topic “Generic pharmaceutical companies” allows you to prioritize the top global generic pharma companies, including Krka, Glenmark, etc.

Asking Leo to prioritize Biopharma companies in any of your biopharma feeds is as simple as creating a new Topic priority and selecting ‘Biopharma companies’ as the topic.

You can look into the companies that belong to those list topics by following this link.

Leo will be looking for all the top global biopharma companies

You can combine topics with +AND and +OR and create even more targeted priorities for Leo. For example, use +AND to focus on news related to breast cancer and biopharma companies.

Refine the priority to biopharma companies and breast neoplasms

If you find that a lot of the information you get about biopharma companies are noisy market reports, you can exclude market reports by using the +NOT in your Leo priority.
