NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The New York Society of Security Analysts (NYSSA) will present the 11th Annual Biotech/Specialty Pharma Conference on December 11-12, 2007. The Nasdaq and AMEX biotech stock indexes have been consistently on the rise year over year. Small- and mid-cap companies have driven the growth, but big biotech has lagged behind big pharma. Although biotech has fallen behind most major indexes, some analysts believe that a turnaround is imminent. Leaders of small- and micro-cap companies will reveal plans to develop new drugs, diagnostics, and delivery technologies.
