Mission in a Minute

World Cancer Day: February 4

On World Cancer Day, Thermo Fisher honors the scientists, healthcare professionals and innovators whose work is giving hope to millions of patients and their families.

In support of our Mission, Thermo Fisher is enabling our customers to improve patient outcomes by providing advanced technologies and comprehensive solutions for cancer research, diagnosis and treatment.

Among the major advances made in clinical cancer care, targeted therapies are transforming care and enabling patients with cancer to live longer.

Our extensive range of reagents, instruments and software supports this cutting-edge research, leading to the discovery of new biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Innovative tools, such as mass spectrometers, are helping scientists identify new protein biomarkers that may one day help clinicians detect cancer earlier and monitor the body’s response to therapy. 

In clinical research and care, our next-generation sequencing (NGS) platform is helping quickly match patients with tailored clinical trials, while our trusted diagnostic solutions facilitate the development of personalized treatment plans in healthcare settings around the world.

 

By integrating these technologies, Thermo Fisher empowers healthcare professionals to make more informed decisions, ultimately improving the accuracy of diagnoses, treatment efficacy and patient survival rates.
