The buyer question
Which decisions define the Berlin life-sciences mandate — research at the documented biopharma-cycle scale, or translation and commercial work — and which programme outcomes will the candidate personally own?
What the public record shows
No located source measures Berlin's own market conditions; the previously cited single-institution or single-market record measured a different market and is not used.
Cycle facts say nothing about any Berlin employer's candidate pool, wages or vacancy duration.
What changes in this market
Berlin mandates split by function. Research mandates prove themselves in programmes advanced. Translation mandates prove themselves in candidates progressed to clinic. Commercial mandates prove themselves in launches executed.

Where the public record stops
No cited source measures candidate availability, compensation or time-to-hire for this market. Test those points against the live mandate.
