• 🌞 Celebrating 6 months of wellness and a virtual, cross-country partnership - reflections on our company #yogaclasses 🧘♂️ You might have noticed our post at the beginning of summer, about weekly yoga classes that we introduced in our office, in which our associates can participate in before work. In total, we held 15 classes on our sunny terrace. With fall weather coming, we switched space and managed to connect virtually and lead a joint yoga class across Atlantic ocean, with Novartis Argentina!🌎 What did we observe as a result of this initiative? 🌿 connecting our minds, bodies, and spirits 🌟 providing space for self-reflection 🙌 mindfulness and stress-reducing aspects 🇸🇰🇦🇷 creating bonds between two country organizations Here's to a season filled with growth, balance, and well-being. Namaste! 🌸
  En Novartis Argentina valoramos el bienestar de nuestro equipo y la colaboración global. El pasado viernes, vivimos una experiencia única: una clase de yoga virtual liderada por una instructora certificada, quien además es colaboradora en nuestra oficina de Novartis Slovakia. Esta iniciativa, nacida en el equipo de Eslovaquia, llegó a Argentina como una forma de promover el bienestar de nuestra gente. Esta primera sesión, realizada en un ambiente virtual y en español, fue una oportunidad para explorar cómo actividades de este tipo pueden beneficiar a nuestro equipo. La participación entusiasta y la energía compartida reflejan el valor de unir esfuerzos y crear espacios de cuidado y conexión, incluso a la distancia. Agradecemos a todos los que se sumaron ¡y esperamos seguir explorando iniciativas de bienestar que nos unan más allá de las fronteras! Namaste! #NovartisArgentina #Reimagingmedicine #OneNovartis #SomosNovartis #Wellbeing
  
• The lives of patients with hematological malignancies have changed significantly in recent decades thanks to innovative treatments. 🩸🔬 Significant prolongation of overall survival and at the same time preserved quality of life were frequently mentioned results in most of the lectures at the Slovak Hematology and Transfusiology Conference held on 24-26th October 2024 in Bratislava.

• At Novartis, we believe in the power of collaboration and community engagement to make a real impact on people's lives. That's why we are proud to be a partner of NIE RAKOVINE's #PinkOctober campaign 🎗️. 🌍🩺 Breast cancer is a global healthcare challenge, affecting millions of lives and families every year. By joining forces with patient organizations, we aim to bring attention to this important cause and make significant strides in improving outcomes for breast cancer patients. We believe that patient organizations play a vital role in the fight against this disease. They provide invaluable support and resources to patients, their families, and caregivers. Together, we are working towards the shared goal of increasing awareness about breast cancer, promoting early detection, and advocating for improved treatment options 💪 Mirror challenge is just one of the ways on how to do so – as a part of the internal awareness, together with our associates, we encourage you to take your #mirrorselfie 📷🎀#BreastCancerAwareness

  🔍🫀 Approximately 25,000 people in Slovakia pass away each year from #cardiovascular diseases, with the mortality rate currently exceeding the number of injuries and cancer combined. Research of modern therapies and novel approaches brings change and dramatically improves patient prognosis and overall survival rates. 🎯 Congress of Slovak Society of Cardiology represents the biggest cardiology meeting in Slovakia, annually setting a trend in the treatment and management of Slovak patients. We are honored that we had the opportunity to be the general partner, contributing to continuous change in approach towards Slovak patients and lowering the overall number of #preventabledeaths, caused by cardiovascular conditions. 🙏🏻
  
• 🏃♀️🏃♂️“Reimagining Movement, Together” was the message of a one special afternoon, which was all about coming together as one Novartis Slovakia team at the same time around the country. After a busy day, each of our teams chose a different fitness activity to do, providing our associates a fantastic opportunity to connect with one another, get moving and build the team spirit. 💪 The weather was kind to us and we all enjoyed a lovely early fall day. ☀️🍂 We believe in prioritizing our associates' well-being alongside their professional development. Our commitment is creating a supportive work environment and we look forward to organizing more events like this in the future.
  
• 📅 September 22nd marked World Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Day and on this occasion, we organized a press conference featuring a panel discussion to raise awareness about the disease. 🩸 Each year, Slovakia sees an increase of 60 new patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. The underlying cause of this rare malignant blood disease is currently known to be a result of a specific genetic abnormality that occurs in the stem cells of the blood. However, what leads to this abnormality is still unknown. 🧬❓ As the speakers at the conference noted, the treatment of #CML has come a long way over the past two decades, turning it from a life-threatening disease to a manageable one. However, as in other therapeutic areas, to maintain the continuum, we need to secure continuous access to innovations – only thanks to the advances in medicine and the development of new treatments, majority of patients with CML can now live long and full lives. 📰 See the full press release here: https://lnkd.in/gHmfccFQ #BloodCancerAwarenessMonth #WorldCMLDayAuthor of the photos: Oles Cheresko
