For the perspective of a forensic accountant, I spoke recently to Tracy Coenen, CPA, CFF.
Inspired by the CFF's success, patient groups with an entrepreneurial bent have become the drug industry's new power brokers.
The latest development kit includes test vectors to support companies developing products and services based on the UV CFF specification.
So Vertex and the CFF worked to develop drugs that would raise the protein out of the cell so Kalydeco could work.

Dolby also announced the availability of a development kit to support the use of Dolby Digital Plus in the UltraViolet CFF specification.
The CFF, in its desire to accelerate the discovery of new drugs, decided that Pfizer was a good place to invest its money.
Essentially, I feel that if Pfizer believes that this research is truly important, the company should pay for it itself and allow the CFF to invest its precious funds in other research endeavors.
But the deal structure that Pfizer has set up with these academic institutions that are fortunate enough to be a part of the CTI network is very different than what Pfizer has done with the CFF.
The UltraViolet CFF makes download functionality consistent across all UltraViolet retailers, which makes it easy for consumers to move or copy downloaded files directly across UltraViolet-compliant devices or applications, without the need for additional downloads or bandwidth.
"Support for Dolby Digital Plus audio within UltraViolet CFF media assets is an important facet of the efficient, automated UltraViolet production workflows enabled by our latest media transformation and workflow solutions, " said Mike Nann, Director, Marketing and Communications, Digital Rapids.
