Department | Recruiting Site | Astellas Pharma Inc.

DEPARTMENT INTRODUCTION

“Contribute toward improving the health of people around the world through the provision of innovative and reliable pharmaceutical products”.
Astellas’ business philosophy cannot be realized by just one person.
“Research” is creating drug candidates by elucidating the mechanisms of diseases; “Development” is testing out the efficacy and safety of the drug candidates created from that research; and “Pharmaceutical Technology” is stably delivering the created drugs.
The drugs that have been carefully nurtured and passed from hand to hand in this way are further passed on to the hands of “MRs”, “MAs”, and other specialists who handle pharmaceutical information, thereby adding value to patients.
