🌟Let's give a standing ovation and send our warmest congratulations to the inspiring laureates of the #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine 2024 Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation. Their discovery has provided insight into the fundamental mechanisms by which cells regulate gene activity. MicroRNAs are now known to play crucial roles in many biological processes and are linked to various diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and autoimmune disorders. Understanding how microRNAs function allows researchers and healthcare practitioners to develop new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, offering hope for more effective treatments in the future. Hats off to them for their remarkable achievements and contributions to the advancement of medicine! 👏 #InnovationInHealthcare

Alzheimer's is one of the biggest global public health challenges facing our society today, and caring for an affected loved one has a profound impact. At Roche, we believe working with the community is critical to transforming Alzheimer's. We're excited to share new research done in partnership with the University of Westminster and Alzheimer's Disease International on the indispensable role of caregiving. 🔍 The work uncovers real stories of carers around the globe and characterises four primary roles and approaches to caregiving around the world - each with distinct support needs. 🌍 The framework developed from the extensive research aids health systems and the Alzheimer’s community in creating inclusive and culturally sensitive guidelines to support informal (unpaid) caregiving. 📖Learn more about it here 👉http://spkl.io/6047fM2gc Together, we can make a difference in supporting the crucial role of those who care for people living with Alzheimer’s disease. Kudos to the dedicated team and partners involved! 👏

"Aliados por la Salud" is a collaboration between Roche, Salud Digna and BBVA working to improve early HPV diagnosis and prevent cervical cancer. This multi-sectoral partnership is paving the way to better health. Nearly 600,000 molecular HPV tests have already been used to fight cancer, and more to come.

We’re thrilled to be a part of the Quad #CancerMoonshot initiative, which brings together the collective power of the United States, Australia, India, and Japan to conquer cervical cancer in the Indo-Pacific region by: 🟦 Supercharging health infrastructure 🟦 Enhancing research collaborations 🟦 Building robust data systems 🟦 Advancing cancer prevention, detection, treatment, and care Did you know #cervicalcancer is the third leading cause of cancer deaths among women in this region? But there's hope—it’s preventable and treatable. Our efforts will focus on: 🟦 Promoting life-saving #HPV vaccinations 💉 🟦 Making screenings more accessible 🩺 🟦 Bringing advanced treatment options to underserved areas 🏥 We’re partnering with Jhpiego and the Department of Health (Philippines) to raise awareness about cervical cancer screening. By spreading the word about HPV testing and the risks of cervical cancer, we aim to provide broad access to high-performance HPV tests and thermal ablation treatment in urban areas of the Philippines. 🎯 Together, we can save countless lives over the next few decades. This initiative is a part of our larger commitment to reducing cancer worldwide. Let’s make a difference together—one step at a time: http://spkl.io/6046fzbSj

As #WorldAlzheimersMonth comes to a close, we are reminded that the fight against this disease doesn’t stop. A diagnosis is often the first step in fighting back against Alzheimer’s for the people living with this devastating condition and their families and so much negative stigma still surrounds it. At Roche, we hope to create a tomorrow where an Alzheimer’s diagnosis is the first step towards effective treatment, helping to preserve what makes us who we are.

To celebrate 20 years of World Lymphoma Awareness Day, the Lymphoma Coalition launched their #HonestTalk campaign earlier this month. This served as a vital reminder of the importance of conversations between patients, their families and healthcare teams to help manage the emotional stresses that come with lymphoma and the fear of relapse. Having these open conversations can help to foster stronger, more supportive relationships, address any concerns that may arise, and connect people to the most appropriate level of care. We encourage all people with lymphoma, as well as their families, friends and healthcare teams, to use the Honest Talk conversation starter and other helpful materials provided by the Lymphoma Coalition. #WLAD2024 #WLAD

Earlier this month, we inaugurated our new pRED centre in Basel. We drew a lot of inspiration from our existing centres in Zurich, Munich, New York, and Welwyn when designing this centre so we can make this R&D facility the future of pharmaceutical innovation! 🔬 Designed for Discovery: Our new centre features thoughtfully crafted lab and office spaces, integrating team input to accelerate science, innovation, and collaboration. With novel digital solutions and seamless logistics, our scientists are equipped to push the boundaries of discovery. 🌍 Sustainability at its Core: Our commitment to the environment is evident throughout the facility, from energy-efficient designs to sustainable construction practices. 🧪 A Scientist’s Dream: Two high-rise laboratory buildings, an office building and a convention centre make up this one-of-a-kind complex and the perfect place to foster a culture of collaboration and creativity. With 103 patent applications filed in 2023 alone, this culture is flourishing! 👥 Building Connections: Our innovation thrives through partnerships with scientific and industry experts, academia, and patient groups. We aim to bring Basel’s vibrant scientific community together in our ultramodern facilities. ❤️ Patients First: Patients are at the heart of our mission. Our work at the pRED Center, which will continue to shape the future of healthcare and deliver life-changing medicines, is a testament to our collective dedication and expertise.

At Roche, we strive to develop innovations that deliver tangible improvements in healthcare while also reducing costs and environmental waste. Recently, our scientists have invented new technology to help diagnose respiratory illness. By using colour, temperature and relatively simple data processing, we can triple the number of viruses that can be detected in a patient sample with a single test, which could mean quicker results and treatment for patients.
