Bristol Myers Squibb R&D is a science-driven, enthusiastic organization determined to discover, develop and deliver medicines that have the potential to transform the lives of patients and establish new standards of care in areas of high unmet need. Patients’ needs and scientific discovery are our driving force.
We have a history of scientific excellence. We dramatically changed outcomes in HIV; we helped discover a cure for HCV; and we developed a novel medicine with proven benefit for atrial fibrillation. We also pioneered targeting the immune system in cancer research, breaking new ground in the science of immuno-oncology.
Today, we are transforming the way certain cancers are treated and focusing our research efforts on areas of high unmet need in Oncology, Hematology, Cardiovascular disease, Immunology and Fibrosis. Our goal is to leave an enduring positive impact on society by making a meaningful difference in the lives of even more patients.
Our people are our greatest asset. Our R&D organization is made up of industry-leading researchers and drug developers who have a passion for science, a curiosity for discovery and a commitment to translating these advances into medicines that make a difference for patients. Our teams are part of a unique global ecosystem that is set up to be agile, interactive, and conducive to translating a nascent idea into a powerful treatment.
We follow the science. Our pipeline of promising molecules and medicines is deliberately built through a multi-disciplinary, collaborative approach. We are deepening our understanding of disease biology and uncovering biomarker insights to help predict how patients will respond to treatment with the goal of making precision medicine a reality for more patients.
We believe partnership and collaboration are essential. Academic research centers, laboratories, clinicians, clinical trials organizations, government, advocates, and industry – all these organizations contribute to a vibrant healthcare ecosystem that is critical to continued scientific advancement. From the global research networks, we’ve created to our creative approach to business development, we complement internal innovation with external innovation – identifying new scientific hypotheses to better understand how to translate research findings into improved patient outcomes.
We believe digital health and data connectivity is transforming our industry. Over the past few years, there has been an explosion of available electronic medical records, genomics and claims data. This, combined with our own data, biomedical and health informatics partnerships, and new analytical tools, is changing how we interact with payers, suppliers, and patients. By leveraging the collective power of data & analytics, we are accelerating the pipeline, enhancing the speed of clinical trials, demonstrating the value of our medicines and helping to inform clinical decisions.
We are constantly anticipating what is coming next, navigating and discovering new technologies, enabling our understanding of new ways to use them and applying them to advance drug discovery, development and delivery to patients as quickly as possible.
Our mission is clear: to discover, develop and deliver innovative medicines to patients with serious diseases.
