Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Charles River’s reputation for quality and scientific expertise supports its leading position in the research model and preclinical trial markets.

Bears

Charles River does not have a long-term advantage in drug discovery, as we believe that will remain the core competency of biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies.
