Bristol Myers Squibb is a global biopharmaceutical company dedicated to discovering, developing and delivering innovative medicines for patients with serious diseases. The company’s research and development efforts are primarily focused on oncology, immunology, cardiovascular disease and fibrosis.

The company maintains research facilities in North America, Europe and Asia, and collaborates with academic institutions, biotechnology firms and other pharmaceutical companies to advance scientific innovation.
