This month, we are highlighting our Healthier Communities initiative to bring awareness to the work we are leading in collaboration with our customers, communities, and colleagues to help advance #healthequity globally. Listen to the latest episode of #ScienceWithATwist as our program executives Fred Lowery and Meron Mathias discuss how we leverage science, innovation, and customer relationships to build thriving health ecosystems around the world. https://lnkd.in/guQQX775

Igniting the spark ✨ for future STEM trailblazers 🤖🔬. Our Grand Island, NY team had a blast sharing their passion for science, technology, engineering and math with kids from the local Boys & Girls Clubs of America. The excitement was contagious as these young minds explored endless possibilities for future careers in STEM and beyond. #FutureInnovators #STEMFun

Scope 3 emissions are a hot topic in sustainability, so how can companies collaborate with suppliers to reduce them while still driving commercial value in the supply chain? Learn how our colleagues are leading the charge in supply chain sustainability and collaborating across our network of suppliers, partners and customers to realize new efficiencies and reduce waste. https://lnkd.in/dC5yg9DX Chris Shanahan Alyssa Caddle Matthew Yamatin Procurement Magazine Supply Chain Digital Sustainability Magazine

Our Orbitrap Astral Mass Spectrometer is a gold winner in the R&D 100 award – Market Disruptor category – and recognized as one the most significant advancements in mass spectrometry in 15 years. Additionally, our Gibco CTS Detachable Dynabeads platform, which is designed to help expedite manufacturing of cell therapies, was recognized in the Mechanical/Materials category. “Our ongoing innovation across the industry underscores our efforts to equip customers with the most powerful technologies and efficient workflows to tackle the world’s most complex problems and improve overall human health,” said Karen Nelson, chief scientific officer, Thermo Fisher Scientific.

Synovial sarcoma is a rare form of soft tissue cancer with a 36% survival rate that most commonly affects young adults. But the FDA’s clearance of our SeCore CDx HLA A Sequencing System as a companion diagnostic can offer new hope. The test can now be used to identify patients who may benefit from a first-of-its kind T-Cell receptor therapy. Targeted Oncology

400,000 pounds. That’s approximately the amount of plastic waste that has been diverted from landfills or incineration as part of a program that connects recyclers with customers who use products like our biobased films. These new plant-based films enable biopharma companies to maintain speed and efficiency in their manufacturing while helping to reduce resin-based greenhouse gas emissions.

A big thank you to our colleagues globally for their support of our Healthier Communities initiative, including those in: 🌎Fort Collins, Colorado: Packed medical supply kits and cholera prevention tip cards for distribution at New Hope Hospital in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. 🌏Singapore: Assembled snack packs for pediatric patients to support Ronald McDonald House Charities of Singapore. 🌍Brussels, Belgium: Distributed clothing and hygiene kits to 100 refugees. 🌎Franklin, Massachusetts: Supplied thousands of hygiene kits to local nonprofits supporting unhoused families, migrants, and people battling addiction. We all play a role in the health of local and global communities. Together, we can build a brighter future for our customers and all of society.

Congratulations Shanya Gill a TIME Kid of the Year honoree! Your dedication to innovation helped you create a potentially life-saving fire-detection device, win the Thermo Fisher Scientific Junior Innovators Challenge and now this! We can't wait to see how you change the world next. Society for Science

There is an urgent need for better technology in the battle against the opioid crisis. Our handheld chemical analyzers offer on-the-ground support for public safety officials to safely scan unknown substances and determine if they contain dangerous ingredients like fentanyl. This significantly reduces the risk of harmful exposures and offers benefits from "the safety perspective of our staff, but also the safety perspective of the community," says one official. Learn more about how proposed bipartisan legislation aims to expand access to advanced technologies like chemical analyzers to fight the drug trade and keep communities safe.

At #ADLM2024, we celebrated diagnostic innovation and dared to dream of a world where faster access to accurate results to improve patient care globally is possible. While at the conference, we also received SelectScience® ‘Scientists’ Choice Award for Best New Clinical Diagnostics Kit or Assay of 2023’ for our B·R·A·H·M·S™ PlGF plus KRYPTOR™ test, which is used to identify women at risk of early onset preeclampsia.
