Amgen is a new supporter of Home Dialysis Central for 2009.
Amgen Inc. discovers and develops innovative human therapeutics. A biotechnology pioneer since 1980, Amgen was one of the first companies to realize the new science's promise by bringing novel medicines from lab, to manufacturing, to patients. Amgen therapeutics have changed the practice of medicine, helping millions of people in the fight against cancer, kidney disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and other serious illnesses.
For 25 years, Amgen has been at the forefront of innovation in nephrology. As part of Amgen's mission to serve patients, it makes donations to qualified charitable organizations that support science, technology, medicine, healthcare, or education; education of the public on diseases, medical conditions, science, or technology; and other genuine philanthropic and charitable purposes that are consistent with Amgen's scientific and medical interests.
Amgen has made a Patient Education Program grant to Home Dialysis Central to support its work.
