Approximately 70% of our targets in research are genetically validated
The success of our R&D rests not just on finding new treatments, but on getting better at how we find them. The key to that is combining human genetics, genomics and advanced technologies to make better predictions about who a treatment might work for, and why.
To fulfil our purpose to get ahead of disease together, we prioritise genetically validated targets to increase our probability of successfully delivering an approved vaccine or medicine, thereby having the greatest impact to improve patient lives. Published scientific research shows that genetically validated targets are at least twice as likely to become medicines.
