Who We Are

The CASSS Foundation for Science, an affiliate of CASSS, was created in 2025 in order to further the sharing of resources, information, and best practices to advance scientific knowledge for the benefit of the biopharmaceutical field, and the public at large, through research, meetings, and other charitable and scientific activities.

What We Do

The Foundation seeks public and private support to fund uniquely impactful projects that will accelerate safety and health for every patient, everywhere. We believe in medicines without borders, and safety without compromise.

We are particularly interested in advancing equitable access to scientific knowledge and regulatory science by supporting education, fostering global collaboration, and investing in the next generation of scientists.

We are actively seeking support to expand our impact across three critical pillars:

  • Expanding Equitable Access: Dismantling barriers to scientific knowledge and regulatory science globally.
  • Fostering Global Collaboration: Connecting experts to share resources, insights, and industry best practices.
  • Investing in the Next Generation: Supporting education and mentorship for emerging scientists worldwide.

Why It Matters

Scientific progress depends on collaboration. By supporting the foundation, donors and grantors help expand access to valuable resources, encourage the sharing of best practices, and strengthen the collective knowledge that benefits both the biopharmaceutical field and the broader public.
