    Amarna Therapeutics, a privately held biotechnology company, has appointed Steen Klysner, Ph.D. as its new chief executive officer as per September 1. Founder and CEO Ben van Leent will become a member of Amarna's Supervisory Board.
     
    "I am very pleased to welcome Steen Klysner as our new CEO. Steen brings an extensive background as a biotech CEO to Swedish ExpreS2ion Biotech Holding AB & the Danish ExpreS2ion Biotechnologies ApS, preceded by an impressive track record in execution and value creation within the biotech industry. His leadership experience makes Steen an ideal candidate to lead Amarna into its next stage of growth and development," said Thomas Eldered, chairman of Amarna's Supervisory Board. "We are extremely grateful for Ben van Leent's leadership and contributions to Amarna as both founder and CEO, and we are excited about the opportunity to focus his outstanding expertise as member of our Board."
     
    "I am incredibly honored to have been given the opportunity to lead Amarna," said Klysner. "SVec has the potential to enable major medical breakthroughs, so that patients can be actually cured of life-threatening diseases for which, to date, effective treatment have not become available. Together with Amarna's highly qualified and experienced team, I'm fully committed to advance the company's groundbreaking technology into the next important clinical development stages."
     
    Experience
     
    Klysner comes to Amarna with over 30 years of experience in the life sciences industry. Prior to joining Amarna, Dr. Klysner served as CEO of the Swedish ExpreS2ion Biotech Holding AB in parallel with the Danish ExpreS2ion Biotechnologies ApS. Earlier, he was senior vice president of preclinical R&D and SVP of quality of Allergopharma, the Allergy Business Unit of Merck KGaA. He also served as CEO of Nordic Vaccine in Copenhagen, focusing on the development of non-invasive vaccination based on an integrated nanoparticle adjuvant and delivery platform. Prior to that he has also held positions at Pharmexa, Novo Nordisk and ALK.
     
    Klysner holds a Ph.D. from Technical University of Denmark combined with an Industrial Scientist Research Degree from the Danish "Academy of Technical Sciences", a M.Sc. degree in Biochemistry from the University of Copenhagen and a B.Sc. in sports from the University of Copenhagen.
     
    Finally, Klysner is author/co-author of numerous patents and scientific publications in (inter)-national peer-reviewed medical journals.
     
    "I am deeply grateful to have had the opportunity to build Amarna to where it is today. In my new role as member of the Supervisory Board, my efforts will be towards helping raise the awareness of Amarna and its SVec gene delivery vector platform and using it to help build a robust pipeline," commented van Leent. "I have full confidence that Steen, a very passionate and talented leader, will provide the leadership and expertise needed to guide Amarna through the next phases of growth. I look forward to working with Steen to drive forward Amarna's product candidates."
