The American Cancer Society (ACS) and Pfizer Inc. (NYE: PFE) today announced the launch of “Change the Odds: Uniting to Improve Cancer Outcomes™,” a three-year initiative to bridge the gap in cancer care disparities. Through $15 million in funding from Pfizer, the initiative aims to improve health outcomes in medically underrepresented communities across the United States by enhancing awareness of and access to cancer screenings, clinical trial opportunities, and patient support and comprehensive navigation. “Change the Odds” will initially focus on breast and prostate cancer in medically underserved communities, with the potential to expand to additional cancer types. ACS plans to engage additional partners to extend the reach of the programmatic activities to more individuals and deepen the tangible impact in select communities.

This month, NEJM Group published data on our maternal vaccine candidate for Group B streptococcus (GBS).

We asked Elizabeth @thatizzygirl93 to tell us a bit more about working at Pfizer 💬 "I’m Elizabeth Kornegay, a Technical Project Manager with the Global Technology and Engineering group. opportunities to work with great minds are everywhere. My goal was simply to learn a lot about a lot. Starting my journey in both Quality Operations and Quality Systems roles, I learned to be versed in many areas of the site and know how it all connects. I enjoyed knowing about the big picture of our processes and find value in knowing the “end to end” of manufacturing. Now working with GTE, I am able to apply and expand on that foundation in relation to a larger network. I plan to passionately continue with this growth at Pfizer, and never downplay or discount any opportunity to expand and I encourage others to do the same! My hobby is polymer clay art, where I primarily make earrings under @craftedbykornegay. Aside from my family and faith, I am always proud to share is my artwork as earrings and all my Pfizer gear!" Thanks for sharing, Elizabeth! We are lucky to have you 🥳
