Corporate Mission
Cryer Pharmaceuticals is the largest healthcare corporation in the Sirius sector providing affordable healthcare to everyone. It's main goal is to contribute toward improving the health of people around Sirius through the provision of innovative and reliable pharmaceutical products. Founded by scientist Max Cryer in 330AS, the company develops, produces, and markets drugs or pharmaceutical drugs for use as different types of medicine, medications and life-sustaining therapies.
Amid continuing evolution in the healthcare industry, Cryer needs to identify business opportunities more flexibly and efficiently than ever in order to achieve further growth. We will define our Focus Areas by adding multiple perspectives to our conventional viewpoint of therapeutic areas. We will factor in a consideration of new technologies and treatment approaches, product development feasibility and new possibilities for commercialization, market trends and changes in pharmaceutical laws and regulations. Our goal is to identify areas of unmet need and find new business opportunities.
Denver Research Institute
In 332AS the first Cryer research lab was built on planet Denver. Because of a lack of large-scale pharmaceutical suppliers Max Cryer used his funds to build a large factory which became an instant success. Smaller pharmaceutical developers were merged into the company and helped Cryer gain a monopoly on the market. The Denver Research Institute has grown larger since, and has become part of Denver University. Top-level students are invited to come here for medical studies, as it is the most advanced medical education centre in Sirius. Despite having a monopoly Cryer has kept their pharmaceutical prices low to make healthcare affordable for everyone and to avoid competition from less reputable vendors.
Cambridge Research Station
In 642AS Cryer Pharmaceuticals developed the Cambridge Research Station. The zero-gravity production environment enabled Cryer to develop many exotic drugs not creatable or usable planetside. Advanced pharmaceutical research has now yielded an entirely new class of custom-tailored drugs. Using scanners and optronic computers, scientists can now determine the precise molecular structure required for drug to be most effective in treating a particular disease or affliction. The resulting drug is then assembled molecule by molecule from raw polymers; however, prototype drugs must be researched in a zero-gravity environment to avoid the effects of gravitational pull, which could disturb the delicate process.
With the Alien Import Prohibition Act (AIPA) of 500AS coming into effect, in which importing Alien Organisms onto inhabited planets is illegal, this station enabled Cryer scientists to study the Organisms from the Edge Nebula. Cryer often pays freelancers for Alien Organisms they have found on their travels. Research into nomadic entities is now also being conducted. Because of their different chemical structure and abilities, also their infective nature, Cryer is highly interested, however it has not got the vessels to obtain large quantities of these themselves and therefor must rely on external suppliers.
Atka Research Station
In 727AS the Atka Research Station was opened, for several reasons. The first being the proximity to planet Kurile, where there was an abundance of Alien Organisms. Cryer researchers are studying these for first analysis showed their excellent longevity-increasing and terraforming abilities. Samura generally collects these on the planet before transportation to Atka. Because of frequent Outcast activity in the area it is often a high-risk journey. The second reason was to intercept passing Cardamine convoys; these fly close to Atka’s location, enabling bomber squadrons to fly sorties to obtain this cargo and thereby taking an addictive and potentially hazardous drug out of the roulation. The third reason is legal jurisdiction: Cryer's synthetic ‘marijuana’ product can be produced and distributed from here, and controversial human testing can be conducted away from disapproving eyes. As one scientist states: “We have to do distasteful things at times to provide Sirius with the finest in medical research.”
Cardamine Research and Innovation
At this time another drug started spreading across Sirius, known as the “Orange Dream.” Cardamine was much more addictive than any pharmaceutical substance Cryer had produced. The Outcasts had been exposed to Cardamine for centuries and if Cryer could make a less dangerous version, which didn’t affect worker productivity; then they could then distribute a legal version to Sirius. If they could reproduce a less potent, more socially acceptable version then Cardamine addicts could switch to their product.
Aside from the narcotic powers of Cardamine, evidence shows it has anti-aging benefits. Cryer is trying to develop a drug that doubles the human lifespan two-fold; if they could manage it they would multiply their profits overnight. After research Cryer found that both Cardamine and Alien Organisms affect RNA and DNA in the same way - therefore the two must be linked.
Of course Cryer's efforts to adapt Cardamine have not gone unnoticed by the Outcasts. After many Cryer transports were destroyed in ‘smog alley’ - the tradelane between Leeds and the New London jump gate, the contract to bring Alien Organisms to Cambridge Research Station has been handed to Bowex. Once received they head straight to a secret laboratory where the scientists verify if its particular DNA strain has been previously characterized before releasing it to general researchers.
Main Product line
Synthetic Marijuana: A new drug produced by Cryer which closely resembles the effect of an ancient plant found on Earth before the exodus that was known only from old books and encyclopedias. Therefore pills of the new drug were called "Synthetic Marijuana".
Stabiline: Produced by Cryer Pharmaceuticals, this drug is a synthetic copy of essential chemical modules that are found naturally in Cardamine, with one crucial difference: Stabiline does not create further genetic alteration in the DNA of the user. Regular doses of Stabiline may replace Cardamine intake, resulting in an addict who is no longer dependant on an illegal substance, although the pharmaceutical does not reduce the pre-existing chemical dependency,nor does it reverse previous DNA alteration.
Human Organs: Apart from pharmaceuticals, being a member and co-founder of the Sirius Emergency Transplantation Network (SETN) Cryer is also the lead transporter of life-saving and life-sustaining Human Organs. Special flight crews are on standby to transport life-saving organs to patients in need.
Not actual feedback but for the purpose of making things look nice, give your logo a transparent background so we don’t have a big square of grey around it. It’ll help it blend into the rest of the post instead of looking huge and bulky
