Everything we do at Genentech — from discovery research and clinical development to manufacturing and marketing — is motivated by a desire to make a difference in the lives of patients. Because as a company we focus our efforts on unmet medical needs, often serious or life-threatening illnesses, we feel a particular sense of urgency and purpose. This sense of mission permeates the company and informs every department and every major decision.
