Medical Affairs, Medical Education Internship

ORGANIZATION OVERVIEW

Lilly is a global healthcare leader that unites caring with discovery to make life better for people around the world. We were founded more than a century ago by Colonel Eli Lilly, who was committed to creating high quality medicines that meet people’s needs, and today we remain true to that mission in all our work. Lilly employees work to discover and bring life-changing medicines to people who need them, improve the understanding and management of disease, and contribute to our communities through philanthropy and volunteerism.

Lilly Canada was established in 1938, the result of a research collaboration with scientists at the University of Toronto which eventually produced the world’s first commercially available insulin. Our work focuses on cardio-metabolic health, cancer, immunology, pain and neuro-degeneration.

At Lilly, our people are the source of all our abilities and successes. Their varied perspectives, experience, and training fuel the creativity and energy needed to pioneer pharmaceutical innovation and help the global medical community.
