·         MedImmune is the worldwide biologics research and development arm of 
AstraZeneca. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to make a difference in people’s 
lives every day. As one of the world’s premier biotechnology companies, our 
mission is centered on delivering life-changing products that advance world 
health, and help fight and cure disease.
We’re constantly pushing the boundaries of science to deliver life-changing 
medicines to patients, with a passion for discovery and a pipeline to show for 
it. We’re pioneering innovative research and exploring novel pathways across 
key therapeutic areas including oncology, respiratory, inflammation and 
autoimmunity, cardiovascular and metabolic disease, and infection and vaccines. 
And we’re industry-leading in immunology, protein engineering and translational 
science. We offer a unique and strong collaborative network as part of the 
AstraZeneca family, as together we explore synergies between small and large 
molecules.

MedImmune has a dynamic environment that fosters collaboration and innovation. 
We attract top minds, and we nurture and build top talent.
