Our science
Scientists at Bristol Myers Squibb do more than imagine the future — they create it by pursuing bold science to address critical unmet needs. Located across the globe, our scientists are driven by curiosity, creativity and urgency to discover new paths forward for patients living with difficult-to-treat diseases worldwide.
Our focus on causal human biology and expertise in diverse platforms and therapeutic areas — including cell therapy, targeted protein degradation, radiopharmaceuticals, advanced small molecules, biotherapeutics, and antibody-drug conjugates — combined with a deep bench of modalities and innovative technologies, help us deliver best- and/or first-in-class programs.
Our research and development framework is rooted in bold science and a strategy that brings all the pieces required to deliver new medicines to patients. We start by selecting the right targets based on human biology, then match the best kind of medicine to the biological mechanism of disease. With early clinical evidence showing our ideas work, we can move faster and increase the chance of success. This end-to-end strategy helps us deliver meaningful, transformational medicines to more patients around the world — faster than ever.
