We recently welcomed @massgovernor Maura Healey to our Plainville, Massachusetts site, where we develop and manufacture technologies that help create critical vaccines and medicines. Governor Healey was joined by Interim Secretary of Economic Development Ashley Stolba, Dr. Kirk Taylor, President & CEO, Massachusetts Life Sciences Center and our @@massbio_ partners Kendalle Burlin O’Connell and Jason Cordeiro. We shared with the governor the ways our 380,000-square-foot facility plays a key role in advancing treatments for conditions such as bladder cancer, pancreatic cancer, Parkinson's disease, Rett Syndrome, Hemophilia B, Duchene's Muscular Dystrophy, and Pompe Disease. The group toured our state-of-the-art site and met the dedicated colleagues who make advancements possible. We are thankful for the opportunity to showcase the impactful work of our team. Thank you, Governor Healey, for engaging in these vital discussions and supporting scientific innovation! Photo credit Joshua Qualls/Governor’s Press Office

Our new Centre for Advanced Training and Innovative Research (CATIR) in Pretoria, South Africa, aims to help transform the future of science and healthcare on the continent. In collaboration with the South African Medical Research Council and the Department of Science, Innovation, and Technology, we will equip scientists with the expertise needed to lead research and healthcare advancements that create opportunities to retain emerging talent in the region, address local health challenges and improve patient care. "Africa needs to localize vaccine and pharmaceutical manufacturing and innovate for Africa, in Africa," says Thermo Fisher’s Marcin Kouri. This initiative is an important step toward achieving that goal. Together, we can empower the brightest minds to thrive and make a positive impact, not only in Africa, but around the globe.

Today marks a milestone in the fight against lung cancer. The FDA has approved our Oncomine Dx Target Test as a companion diagnostic to identify patients eligible for @boehringer_ingelheim's HERNEXEOS® (zongertinib tablets). This test can detect specific mutations in non-small cell lung cancer tumors, helping clinicians determine the best treatment options for patients. Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers in the United States. For patients with rare HER2-mutant non-small cell lung cancer, treatment options have been limited. HERNEXEOS® is the first and only orally administered targeted therapy for this rare form of lung cancer, offering new hope for those facing a challenging prognosis. This approval represents another important step forward in personalized medicine, ensuring that individuals receive treatments tailored to their unique genetic makeup. With the Oncomine Dx Target Test, we are empowering healthcare providers to make more informed decisions and improve patient outcomes. Together, we can transform the future of cancer treatment and bring hope to those who need it most.

Meet Bella, a 16-year-old from Kebbi, Nigeria, whose life was transformed by Project HOPE, a global non-profit that provides medical care, mental health and other support programs to communities worldwide. In a town where 32 percent of the population is illiterate and girls are not encouraged to speak out, Project HOPE provided Bella with new opportunities and training that helped develop her computer literacy and public speaking skills. She now has renewed hope and dreams of becoming a doctor to support her community. Thermo Fisher Scientific colleagues support Project HOPE and youth like Bella through a grant program and volunteer activities. We are committed to supporting programs like Project HOPE to empower people and communities globally.

A routine physical turned into a devastating cancer diagnosis for Paul Chae at age 51. An FDA-approved CAR-T cell therapy became his last option after failing out of a clinical trial to treat his lymphoma. The treatment was “revolutionary, because it had not been done before,” says Chae. Watch to learn more about how CAR-T cell therapy can help turn a patient’s own immune cells into powerful, targeted cancer-fighting agents, giving hope to patients like Chae.
