Global Patient Week

Now in its ninth year, Global Patient Week is an integral part of our culture — it unifies us and reignites our passion to do more for our patients. As the first biopharma to set aside time solely focused on the individuals we work for each and every day, we promise to always listen and learn from the world’s greatest experts: our patients. As they share the depth and breadth of their journeys — and the unique path that each of them travels — they strengthen our resolve. Ultimately, their shared stories empower us as we transform patients’ lives through science.
