Partnering in Technologies
The need for innovative technologies to accelerate pharmaceutical research and development has never been greater. Seeking to be at the forefront of cutting-edge science, we are expanding our growing global network of technology partners to complement our own expertise in research, development and translational medicine.
Our experience
Scientists at our major research sites, together with our academic and industry partners, are pursuing novel technologies to support therapeutic advances in areas of key unmet medical need. We have the ambition to identify and translate the most promising technology innovations into impactful applications across a broad range of research fields.
