We drive dermatology, we care
Within dermatology our focus areas lie in psoriasis, atopic eczema & acne.
Our mission is to help people achieve healthy skin and so improve the quality of life for those affected by skin disease. Did you know that psoriasis currently affects 1 in 50 people? Studies show that only half of those with psoriasis receive satisfactory treatment. We are working to change this.
We start by listening. All the diseases we work with create physical and mental discomfort, so before we can develop treatments and solutions to help people live a better life, we must understand what it is like to live with a disease such as psoriasis.
We push the limits of medical dermatology to understand patients, skin and dermatological diseases better than anyone else to pave the way towards precision medicine, prevention and eventually curing skin diseases . To do this we have R&D specialists positioned around the globe to discover and develop innovative solutions within medical dermatology for people living with a skin disease.

Advancing the care of patients with Thrombosis
Thrombosis refers to abnormal, potentially life-threatening, blood clots that form in an artery or vein. A clot in the vein (usually in the leg or pelvis) is known as a Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and a clot that breaks off and travels to the lungs is known as a Pulmonary Embolism (PE). Together, DVT and PE make up Venous Thrombo Embolism (VTE).
Blood clots do not discriminate. They affect people of all ages, races and ethnicities, and occur in both men and women. Certain factors and situations can increase the risk of developing life-threatening blood clots such as cancer, cancer treatment, major surgery, inactivity, pregnancy or genetic disposition. If you experience one of these, do not hesitate to ask your healthcare team about your risk of blood clots and which symptoms to look out for.
Blood clots are often treated with heparins- anti-coagulants that occur naturally in our body.
