Patients
We’re here to help you get the information you need to guide you on your health journey.
Our commitment to the patient community
We work hard to discover and develop medicines and vaccines that help fight some of the world’s most serious health concerns. And it’s critical that we understand, respect and honor the life experiences of patient communities — your voice is important to us. That’s why we listen to patients and take into account your opinions and perspectives when making business and research decisions.
We put patients at the center of everything we do
We encourage patient communities to become their own health advocates, make informed decisions and be partners in engaging with the health care system.
We're guided by our values
- Patients first
- Innovation and scientific excellence
- Ethics and integrity
- Respect for people
