What we do

Our areas of focus

We focus on scientific innovation to deliver medicines and vaccines that may help millions of people around the world.

Oncology

MSD is inventing new ways to treat cancer, with more than 850 clinical studies underway globally. Our work with the NHS and NICE enabled more than 900 patients to access our cancer treatment 5 months earlier.

 
Vaccines

Over the past century, MSD has invented more than 40 vaccines to protect children, adolescents, adults and animals from serious diseases. MSD has developed some of the first ever vaccines in various therapy areas.

Infectious Diseases

MSD has played a leading role in advocating changes to the way in which antibiotics are made available in the UK. We also play an important role in areas such as HIV and Ebola.

 
COVID-19

We have a special responsibility to help in the fight against COVID-19. We've been fully committed to developing an effective response to the COVID-19 pandemic since it was first recognised.

Cardio-Metabolic Diseases

Our commitment to cardiovascular care began with one of the first oral antihypertensive medications in the 1950s and continued with research leading to new cholesterol-lowering statins in the 1970s. 

 
Discovery and Development

We follow the science where we can make the greatest difference, now and in the future. Our scientific discovery team and research collaborations across the life sciences ecosystem are well established and growing.
