Pharma Peers Unite to Build DNA-Encoded Libraries
Pfizer Researcher Sylvie Sakata was close to giving up on one discovery tool, DNA-encoded libraries, when a new consortium started to fall into place. Now this technology is garnering more interest for its potential to discover new molecular compounds, known as “hits,” to exponentially impact the early research efforts that can lead to potential new medicines.

How Pfizer Puts Patients First in Clinical Trials
Pfizer is revolutionizing clinical trials by prioritizing patient experience and engagement at every step of the process. Learn more about the what this patient-centered focus looks like in action.
How Quantitative Systems Pharmacology Steers Safer, Faster Drug Development
Quantitative systems pharmacology gets medicine to patients quicker, improves how well they work, and minimizes patient risk—especially for new treatments. At Pfizer, the team creates fit-for-purpose models to generate and test hypotheses before treatments reach patients.
What You Need to Know About a Promising Vaccine Candidate that May Stem the Growing Risk of Lyme Disease
Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne illness in the United States. Learn more about the Pfizer collaboration with Valneva, a European company specializing in vaccines, to codevelop and commercialize a vaccine candidate against Lyme disease.
Join us at the forefront of innovation.
We don’t simply have an eye on the future. Here, you’ll be creating it. We are redefining how we approach our processes – from developing innovative solutions that can overcome significant challenges to designing strategies that can transform potential opportunities. Different expertise is essential to our innovation.
- Anti-Infectives
Infectious diseases continue to be one of the biggest public health concerns around the world. Since our pioneering work on penicillin in the 1940s, we have a strong history of addressing this evolving risk.
- Inflammation and Immunology
Many patients with chronic inflammatory diseases have access to therapies that only relieve their symptoms. We believe we can address the root cause of these debilitating diseases by treating it at the molecular level.
- Internal Medicine
Cardiovascular (heart) and metabolic diseases are the number one cause of death worldwide. We’re committed to addressing these global health challenges by developing potential therapies to treat or prevent disease progression and improve the quality of life for patients.
- Vaccines
The best time to stop a virus or bacterium is before it can infect someone. Vaccines can give your body way to identify an infecting agent, and instructions on how to defeat it—and potentially, avoid infecting others.
