Dr. Mu has more than 18 years of clinical research and development experience, having held medical and clinical leadership positions with Roche, Abraxis Bioscience (now Celgene), Biogen Idec, Genentech, and Procter and Gamble. Dr. Mu’s experience includes early- to late-stage development of cytotoxic agents, small molecules, and monoclonal antibodies; management of clinical and regulatory organizations, oversight of external collaborations and partnerships, interaction with regulatory authorities in the U.S., Europe and Asia; and advancement of drug candidates to market and post-market development.
 
Dr. Mu joins the company from Hutchison MediPharma, where he served as executive vice president and chief medical officer.
