Fostering the next generation of scientific discovery is a key part of our overall commitment to science. For this reason, Merck promotes science education at the pre-college, undergraduate, graduate and post-doctoral levels and provides long-term, sustained support for programs that expand capacity for training in biomedical and health sciences, engineering and technology.
"Merck is committed to promoting the development and training of future leaders in science and biomedical research, particularly among under-represented groups. This is vital not only to Merck as a company driven by scientific innovation, but to enhancing economic competitiveness in the United States."
Richard T. Clark
CEO and president, Merck & Co., Inc.
