USA-based Sana Biotechnology (Nasdaq: SANA) has announced the appointments of two senior leaders to its research and development organization.
Douglas Williams has been named as president of R&D, and Dr Gary Meininger, as chief medical officer. In a planned transition, current CMO Dr Sunil Agarwal will leave the company after helping onboard these new executives.
Dr Williams has over three decades of experience leading R&D organizations and companies, including at Biogen (Nasdaq: BIIB), ZymoGenetics, Seattle Genetics, Amgen (Nasdaq: AMGN), and Immunex, and most recently he was chief executive of Codiak BioSciences, which last month filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. In his career, he has participated in the development of over a dozen approved medicines across multiple therapeutic areas, including multiple blockbusters.
