American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week 2021 (CME VIDEOS)

We unite science, talent, and technology to get ahead of disease together.

We prevent and treat disease with vaccines, specialty, and general medicines. We focus on science of the immune system, human genetics, and advanced technologies investing in four core therapeutic areas and future opportunities to impact health at scale. We operate responsibly for all our stakeholders by prioritising Innovation, Performance, and Trust.

At this year’s virtual ASN Kidney Week, we are proud to share eight data presentations from across our growing pipeline and portfolio of Specialty medicines, underscoring our commitment to drive innovation for people with kidney disease.
