With roots in the biotech revolution, Amgen is one of the world’s leading independent biotech companies.

Find out why Amgen operates at a different rhythm, accelerating the pace of change at the cutting edge of medical discovery, inventing powerful new therapies and reliably delivering them to patients.

The rhythm of life unfolds at an ever-changing pace. Some moments pass in a blur. Others tick by in slow motion.

But no matter what the pace of life, nothing is more valuable than the time we have to experience it—and the chance we have to live each moment to its fullest.

That’s why Amgen operates at a different rhythm, moving quickly toward the future by combatting the world’s toughest diseases.

With roots in the biotech revolution, today Amgen is one of the world’s leading independent biotech companies.

With each decade, we stay on the cutting edge of medical discovery, inventing powerful therapies—and reliably delivering them to patients.

We fight the toughest diseases, such as cancer, heart disease, asthma, and osteoporosis to help millions of people globally.

We live in a new era of human health. And Amgen continues to accelerate the pace of change--operating sustainably and drawing upon our deep knowledge of science to push beyond what’s known today.

We tap into a vast library of human and genetic data to unearth new insights into treating disease.

We are creating new therapies that are more precise and personalized than ever before, advancing medicines that can work in new ways, such as targeting multiple pathways in the body at the same time.

Machine learning and artificial intelligence help us make medicines more quickly and effectively by helping to predict if they’ll be safe and effective.

We’re also removing barriers that limit equitable access to healthcare to make our medicines available to more patients around the world.

At Amgen, our mission is to serve patients because we want these rhythms of life to continue. We want you, and your loved ones, to make every moment count—and to count on having more moments.
