      Where Do Your Medicines Come From?

      Learn how new medicines get discovered—or is it invented?—and meet the people pushing progress forward.

      Ad by Pfizer
      Updated Oct. 15, 2018 5:28PM ET / Published Mar. 06, 2018 2:00PM ET 

      The hunt for cures has been going on for centuries, but recent breakthroughs by scientists at biopharmaceutical companies like Pfizer have pushed medical progress forward by exponential leaps. The story of bringing a medicine to life is no different than any other process of creation. It requires innovation, imagination, and restless perseverance in the face of obstacles both expected and unforeseen.

      Narrated by Dr. Freda C. Lewis-Hall, Chief Medical Officer of Pfizer, Cure Hunters is a video series that gives a behind-the-scenes look at the cutting-edge science that’s impacting our daily lives, and introduces the researchers, developers and innovators that pursue the great challenge of finding new ways to fight disease.

      Above, check out the first episode of Cure Hunters where we investigate the amazing journey of the discovery and invention of new medicines.
