Where you live shouldn’t determine the health of your lungs. 🫁

But for people around the world, it does. At #WHA79, we're focused on improving lung health equity – using data to identify underserved communities and target care to where it's needed most.

With 1.4 billon people affected globally, hypertension is a leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease. This World Hypertension Day, we’re highlighting the burden for those who struggle to reach their blood pressure targets despite multiple medications, which is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular and kidney events.

Deborah has worked with her care team to optimize therapies and make lifestyle changes, and her high blood pressure persists.
We’re committed to advancing scientific research and evidence-based approaches to help more patients achieve blood pressure control.

We’re shining a light on the signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer. They can be easy to miss or mistaken for something else, which can delay diagnosis.

By building awareness and encouraging open conversations, we can help more women feel heard, supported, and empowered to seek answers when something doesn’t feel right.

More than 600,000 people are diagnosed with bladder cancer each year.
Together with members of our Global Bladder Cancer Council, this Bladder Cancer Awareness Month we are proud to stand alongside the bladder cancer community and amplify the voices of experts and patient advocates helping drive progress in bladder cancer care.
Watch the video to hear their perspectives on the importance of advocacy, partnership and continued innovation for people affected by bladder cancer. #BladderCancerMonth2026 #BladderCancer

Asthma impacts more 262 million people worldwide and can cause significant disruptions in daily life. By pushing the boundaries of science and supporting access to evidence-based care that helps reduce exacerbations, we’re working toward a future where better asthma control and sustained remission could be a reality.
Learn how we’re unlocking new scientific approaches to treatment, so people living with asthma can make every breath count at the link in our bio. #WorldAsthmaDay

Our 2026 Sustainability Impact Publication is here!

This edition spotlights global case studies to demonstrate our progress across:

- Climate and nature
- Health equity
- Health systems resilience

Explore how we’re scaling impact for people, society and planet via link in bio.

#Sustainability #WhatScienceCanDo

Watch one of our scientists show how optimising route design, the process used to map chemical steps to manufacture a drug substance, helped cut waste and lower CO2 emissions in the production of a cardiovascular medicine. This is just one way we are integrating sustainability into our R&D process so we can help drive positive impact for people, society and the planet.

This is sustainable science. #WhatScienceCanDo

Innovation in action 🌍

Our Dunkirk site is the world’s first to produce AstraZeneca’s inhaled respiratory medicines using next-generation propellant with 99.9% lower global warming potential compared to those currently used. .

Serving patients. Protecting the planet.

#Sustainability #WhatScienceCanDo

One of our scientists shows how recycling solvents, the liquid environments where chemical reactions take place, helped lower carbon emissions and minimise waste in the manufacture of a cancer medicine.

This is one example of how sustainability is embedded in the way we discover, develop and make medicines, creating positive impact for people, society and the planet.

This is sustainable science.

Receiving a rare disease diagnosis often takes five years or more and involves multiple doctors, specialists, and misdiagnoses. Improving the diagnostic process can help shorten this journey for the rare disease community.

How well do you know multiple myeloma (MM)? MM is the second most common blood cancer, accounting for approximately 10% of blood cancers worldwide. For many people, a diagnosis comes with complex symptoms and long‑term management.
During Myeloma Awareness Month, we’re raising awareness through education and conversation, starting with a simple question. #MyelomaAwarenessMonth

We highlight the neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) community and share insights to support understanding and collaboration in healthcare.
