In this crucial phase, Martin brings significant financial leadership and strategic experience to the company.”

“I am excited to join the talented team at BioVersys at this pivotal time,” said Martin. “Antimicrobial resistance is a troubling and growing public health issue and I look forward to drawing from my financial, transaction and strategic experience to help drive the Company as it develops innovative and desperately needed medications for patients.”
