We partner with a broad range of organizations to help address today's healthcare challenges. We want to do our part to ensure that patients, and the healthcare providers who treat them, receive the information and support they need.

Recipients include medical and other healthcare professional organizations, patient organizations, academic institutions, hospitals, medical education companies and other scientific associations.
