Cytovance Biologics, a biopharmaceutical contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), has appointed Dr. Jesse McCool to chief executive officer. Dr. Yan Wang will step down as Cytovance’s interim chief executive while continuing to serve as director of the board for Cytovance and chief executive officer of SPL. Dr. McCool will report to Frank Sun, executive director and vice chairman of the board for Shenzhen Hepalink Pharmaceutical Group Co., Ltd. and chairman of the board for Cytovance. In this new appointment, Dr. McCool will lead Cytovance through another phase of the business transformation strategy that began in 2018 under the leadership of Dr. Wang.
