Our new discovery research strategy aims at enhancing our capacity for innovation and at encouraging scientific creativity for diseases with high unmet medical need.

From initial discovery to a marketable medicine is a long, challenging road. It takes about 12 - 15 years from discovery to the approved medication and requires an investment of about US $1 billion.
