At BioMarin, we realize the importance of extending our support of scientific advancement beyond the research we conduct and the medicines we provide. We support activities that make useful information and resources available to the broader medical and scientific communities to help advance science, increase understanding of certain diseases and enhance patient care.
Independent Medical Education funding supports accredited or non-accredited medical education activities for healthcare providers where content is not controlled or influenced by BioMarin. Independent Medical Education includes both continuing medical education (CME) and non-CME programs, and both may originate from similar types of organizations (e.g., hospitals, professional societies, or third-party, medical-education providers).
In alignment with our commitment to scientific innovation in areas of unmet medical need, we may provide product and funding support for external research in rare diseases and genetic disorders.
This program supports the following types of Investigator Initiated Studies:
