Scientists are at the center of what Genentech does — their efforts lead to the discovery of therapies for patients with difficult-to-treat diseases. They are the primary source of our marketed products and new drug candidates in our development pipeline. In this section, you'll learn about some of the highly talented scientists from different areas and levels of the Research organization who work at Genentech. You'll hear about how these researchers joined Genentech, what they are currently working on, what inspires them, and what kind of people they are looking to recruit into their areas of the Research Department. You'll also have access to information about each researcher's education and background, top scientific papers, and awards and titles. |
