Bristol Myers Squibb Foundation

****Our vision**** **At the Bristol Myers Squibb Foundation, our vision is to help create a world where everyone has the opportunity to achieve their optimal health. We strive to bridge divides by empowering local communities and health systems to create lasting impact.** Each member of the Bristol Myers Squibb Foundation team brings unique skills and experience, as well as an abundance of passion, to help create a world where everyone has the opportunity to achieve their optimal health. **Adult cancers** We are leveraging lessons from our decade of work addressing lung cancer disparities in the U.S. Through our Multinational Lung Cancer Control Program (MLCCP), we are building the capacity to better diagnose lung cancer, while we remain committed to addressing other high disease burden cancers prevalent in the countries where we are focused. **Pediatric cancers and blood disorders** We have a steadfast commitment to be a leader in the wider pediatric community and improve global health for pediatric patients. Our work is aligned with innovative organizations, health systems and capacity-building initiatives focused on pediatric cancers, sickle cell disease and beta-thalassemia. **Neuropsychiatry** Our newest grant program in the U.S., supports the diversion of patients with serious mental illness from the criminal justice system into critical community-based mental health services. **Excellence in clinical trials** The Robert A. Winn Excellence in Clinical Trials Award Program addresses the priority of improving representation in clinical trials. By training the next generation of clinical trialists in the science of community engagement, we believe we can include more patients in clinical trials that match the epidemiology of the disease studied. Research areas include cancer, cardiovascular disease and neuropsychiatry. **Our mission** Our mission is to improve global health. We’ve fearlessly ventured to increase access to healthcare for underserved populations by engaging in partnerships that build capacity and strengthen health systems in the geographies where we focus, from Brazil to India, to ten countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, and across the United States.
