Mission: "Medicine for Better Lives"

To discover, develop, and manufacture biological medicines that improve the lives of people in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and around the world while educating and training a workforce that will perpetuate this public health mission.


Vision:

To cultivate and disseminate knowledge that results in the discovery, development, and manufacture of safe and effective biologic medicines and supporting technologies that will significantly improve public health. This includes products and technologies for smaller patient populations due to limited incidence of disease, uncertain markets as new challenges to public health arise, or products for developing nations with limited resources and unique needs.
