Philadelphia—Elsevier, which publishes science, technical and health information, Monday announced that it has acquired Windhover Information, which provides analysis and commentary on the health care industry. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Windhover’s assets include journals IN VIVO and RPM Report; Strategic Transactions Database, a database of health care industry transactions; and a series of medical device and biopharmaceutical partnering and strategy conferences.

The acquisition expands Elsevier’s so-called work-flow tools. Windhover will operate within Elsevier’s Pharma Business Intelligence Unit, which includes F-D-C Reports and Inteleos, a database on drug development.

Elsevier is a subsidiary of Anglo-Dutch publishing giant Reed Elsevier.
