About Southern Research
We’ve created seven drugs that are helping win the war on cancer. More are on the way. When HIV threatened the world’s future, we helped develop a course of treatment that changed the course of history. We’re creating better ways for you to have cleaner air and water. Our technologies help men and women in uniform remain safe overseas. We’re developing methods to build energy efficient cars out of plant fiber that will get 80mpg. We are Southern Research. We’re taking on the world’s hardest problems. And solving them. This has been our mission since 1941.
And we’re just getting started.
