Medicines Development places Development Manager at Immuron

While remaining an employee of Medicines Development, Gerhard will be a part of the Immuron team to progress the development of their novel oral immunotherapy platform. In addition to Gerhard’s practical, hands on planning and implementation of the development program, the broader Medicines Development will provide Immuron with operational advice and support to supplement their significant in-house experience.

Mark Sullivan, Director of Medicines Development said “We are delighted to be working with Immuron. Gerhard’s placement is a direct result of Immuron’s innovative approach and the support we have received from Victorian Government to provide a very practical solution to new product development. Gerhard, Immuron and Medicines Development all benefit from this program focused on improving new product development across the sector.”

Joe Baini, Chief Executive Officer at Immuron said “We welcome Gerhrad to Immuron as a significant addition to our team. Gerhard’s knowledge and understanding of the complex regulatory environments in global markets will be pivotal as Immuron continues to licence Travelan around the world as well as establish a strong regulatory base for all future products emanating from our unique platform technology.”
