As part of Amgen’s mission to serve patients we not only develop and deliver innovative medicines – we also make donations for educational, scientific, or charitable purposes through Amgen Medical Education and Donations (AmgenMED).

AmgenMED makes education and charitable donations to qualified organizations that advance medicine and health care, promote health care professional education, educate the public on diseases and medical conditions and support other philanthropic and charitable causes that ultimately benefit patients. 

Ten types of education and scientific donations are offered in five therapeutic areas of interest:  hematology/oncology; inflammation: dermatology; inflammation: rheumatology; nephrology; osteoporosis.  Other areas of interest include the practice of pharmacy, healthcare policy, health outcomes, pharmacoeconomics and good clinical practice training.

Grants and donations provided by Amgen’s Medical Education Department and the Amgen Foundation are compliant with federal and state laws, as well as industry and academic codes and guidelines that govern such activities. In addition, Amgen applies strict standards to all of our interactions with health care professionals and other customers (click here for more information).
