Leader Perspectives
March is an important month for us at Jazz. As a leader in sleep medicine, the month served as an awareness opportunity for those living with sleep disorders, as well as their caregivers, healthcare providers and our advocacy partners.
Jazz is committed to developing critical medicines for people living with serious neurological conditions including epilepsy. At this year’s 2022 American Epilepsy Society (AES) annual meeting, we will present data from six abstracts showcasing Jazz’s commitment to providing medicines for people living with rare forms of epilepsy with few treatment options.
In recognition of National Epilepsy Awareness Month, our Chief Executive Officer, Bruce Cozadd shares Jazz’s commitment to raising awareness of epilepsy and how we’re working to generate a greater impact and address the needs of the epilepsy community.
This year’s World Heart Day is centered around the theme of ‘Cardiovascular Health for Everyone,’ which raises awareness of the prevention, treatment and management of cardiovascular disease worldwide. At Jazz, we know that people living with sleep disorders, such as narcolepsy, face risks in developing some of these comorbidities, and we are committed to exploring solutions that can help effectively manage the impacts they face, including hypertension, cardiovascular disease, obesity and diabetes.
In honor of Blood Cancer Awareness Month, Abizer Gaslightwala Vice President, Head of US Hematology/Oncology Business Unit at Jazz, reflects on Jazz’s commitment to patients with blood cancer and the unique partnership with a childhood cancer research group that enabled the accelerated development process of a new treatment option for some blood cancer patients to ensure reliable access to treatment without obstacles to their care.
At Jazz, our purpose is to innovate to transform the lives of patients and their families. In the coming days, we are showcasing our ongoing commitment to the sleep community with our presence at SLEEP 2022, the 36th annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies.
