22 Février 2024 - 1:30PM
InflaRx N.V. (Nasdaq: IFRX), a biopharmaceutical company pioneering
anti-inflammatory therapeutics by targeting the complement system,
today announced the appointment of Jan Medina, CFA, as Vice
President and Head of Investor Relations of InflaRx. Mr. Medina
brings over 25 years of extensive experience across the life
sciences sector and capital markets, including in the areas of
investor relations, communications and equity research.
Prof. Niels C. Riedemann, Chief Executive
Officer and Founder of InflaRx, said: “We are delighted to welcome
Jan to our team. His experience, proven track record and deep
network with investors and capital markets will be invaluable as we
continue to advance our clinical programs and strengthen our
relationships with the investor community.”
Jan Medina commented: "It's a privilege to join
InflaRx during this exciting time, with its strong execution and as
the Company broadens its development efforts to meaningfully
improve the treatment of chronic immune-inflammatory diseases. I am
particularly excited about the promise of our new oral C5aR
inhibitor INF904, which recently provided evidence of best-in-class
potential. In addition, our late-stage asset vilobelimab is now in
Phase III for pyoderma gangrenosum, an unmet medical need with no
drug approved in the U.S. or Europe. I look forward to working with
the dedicated team at InflaRx as we continue our next phase of
pipeline value creation."
Jan joins InflaRx from Olink Proteomics where he
was Vice President, Investor Relations & Capital Markets. His
previous IR experience includes roles at consultancy firms and at
companies focused on oncology, immuno-oncology, hematology,
specialty therapeutics and medical technology, ranging from
early-stage ventures to global commercial entities. Jan’s sell-side
experience includes roles within boutique and specialty research
firms, as well as positions at several global investment banks. On
the buy-side, Jan focused on healthcare and biotech. He holds a
Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering from Tulane
University School of Engineering and is a CFA charterholder.
