Many of the discoveries and innovations that drive the Pfizer pipeline to new potentials occur in the world-class research and development laboratories in Groton, Connecticut. Pfizer Groton has a long and proud history of drug discovery and development including Zoloft and Zithromax, and more recently, Xalkori and Xeljanz. Today Groton colleagues are leading the way in drug development, providing vital information, tools, technologies, data, drug targets, and compounds to scientists around the globe, at every level of drug discovery and development, and across all of Pfizer's therapeutic areas. Nearly every Pfizer product is developed, in part, in Groton. Examples of colleagues’ expertise include tissue and tumor targeting, pediatric drug delivery, and drug-to-drug interaction.
